Petition Mexico to Raise Its Minimum Wage to Equal the US Minimum Wage

Petition Mexico to Raise Its Minimum Wage to Equal the US Minimum Wage

The Issue

Fifty per cent of the undocumented living in the United States come from Mexico. The Mexican undocumented would not come or stay in the United States if they could make a decent living wage working safely at home with their families in Mexico.

The current federal minimum wage in Mexico is about $5.00 per day (62.5 cents per hour), yet one billion dollars of trade is exchanged between the 1% of the United States and Mexico per day.

The common citizens of both the United States and Mexico suffer while the 1% of both countries continue to profit. This inequality must stop in order for the 99% of both the United States and Mexico to prosper.
