Are you talking about A9168, which has yet to attract a single Senate sponsor from either party?

If so, feel free to revisit the point when Malcolm Smith has promised to send it to the governor's desk on day one, or at least bothered to lift a finger supporting it. Until then, Bruno's position is somewhat less than scandalous.

As for 1199, perhaps their army of pointy-headed political analysts feels that pushing for another minimum wage increase a little over a year after the last one would be unfeasible? Given the inaction by EVERY SINGLE SENATOR, including some real crazies, it would be hard to disagree.
