Start today. It wouldn't need a million people in washingtondc, its expensive to travel and stay for protests.

Sen. Sanders could use the internet and phones, faxes. Demand to raise the Federal minimum. Congress keeps track of communications. Millions of calls and emails over several days will push them in the right direction. We have to "make them do it" with millions of "the people" asking them to.

To raise the Federal minimum is Congresses job, the paperwork is done, Obama has asked them, Congress ignores the action because the people don't push them. not even by phone or email.
