Evidence

"She cosponsored the Raise the Wage Act, which would gradually increase the federal minimum wage to $17 an hour."

Julie Johnson’s official campaign issues page still lists support for a federal minimum-wage increase, which is evidence of commitment but not delivery.

Assessments

never same_term A for effort

Julie Johnson cosponsored the federal Raise the Wage Act of 2025, which would raise the federal minimum wage to $17, directly matching the promise. However, the bill has not been enacted and remains at the introduced/referred-to-committee stage; the federal minimum wage applicable in Texas has not been raised. This is a serious legislative attempt but not delivery of the promised outcome.
