Mejia called for raising the minimum wage
Raise the minimum wage.
Occurrences
I’m proud to partner with Congresswoman Delia Ramirez on the Living Wage for All Act to raise the federal minimum wage to $25 an hour.
To place the Federal minimum wage on a durable path toward a living wage aligned with the national median wage, to require large, highly profitable corporations to lead the transition, to end all subminimum wages, and for other purposes.

Evidence
The Department of Labor's minimum wage page states that the federal minimum wage for covered nonexempt employees is $7.25 per hour. The page was crawled 3 days ago and does not show any recent federal increase or enacted change during the lookback window.
Assessments
In the federal context, this promise would require a federal minimum-wage increase. The provided evidence says the U.S. Department of Labor still lists the federal minimum wage at $7.25 per hour, with no enacted increase reflected in the current lookback window. That means the promised outcome has not been delivered. Because Analilia Mejia is still an active federal officeholder and the record here does not show a completed legislative failure or a substantial failed push directly attributable to her, the best judgment is unresolved rather than never.
The promise is federal in scope for a U.S. Representative. The available evidence shows the federal minimum wage remains $7.25 per hour, with no enacted federal increase reflected during the lookback window. There is no evidence in the payload that Mejia sponsored, wrote, passed, or materially advanced a successful federal minimum-wage increase, and no evidence of a failed serious legislative attempt sufficient for an effort badge.
