Romney expressed his support for raising the minimum wage in February. Then conservative pundits freaked out. Then, in March, Romney said "there's probably no need to raise the minimum wage." To my knowledge, that's the last time he said anything about the minimum wage. I used google to search for "minimum wage" on Romney's campaign website, and couldn't find anything supporting an increase in the minimum wage. If you can find a more recent quote from Romney expressing support for raising the minimum wage, please post it. |
you should just watch the video of what Romney said. You are taking a quote out of context. When Romney said that, he was replying to Larry Kudlow when Kudlow said, "there is very little to no inflation now." Romney's reply is that that probably means that we don't need to raise the minimum wage now. It is consistent with his position.

I would embed the video, but I can't figure it out. It is at the bottome of the page in this article.
