As the fight to include a $15 federal hourly minimum wage in the coronavirus relief bill hits speed bumps including an objection from the Senate parliamentarian and White House reluctance to go against her advice, over 150,000 voters by Friday signed a petition supporting the wage hike.

'We call on the Biden administration to disregard the parliamentarian rule and proceed with a [Covid-19] package that includes One Fair Wage of $15,' Saru Jayaraman, president and co-founder of One Fair Wage—which is leading the petition—said in a statement.

'The passage of a $15 federal minimum wage and elimination of the subminimum wages for tipped workers, workers with disabilities, and youth workers would guarantee a livable wage for all workers for the first time in our country's nearly 250 year history,' Jayaraman continued. 'Decency is Democrats using the political power they've been handed to finally deliver for the hardworking people of this country who have been repeatedly stepped on and disregarded over the last four years and especially during the pandemic.'

Dozens of progressive organizations also endorsed a letter accompanying the petition calling on President Joe Biden and Vice President Kamala Harris to ignore the parliamentarian's ruling and do 'whatever it takes' to deliver on their promise to voters.

'We are women of color, people of color, women, low-wage workers, and organizations that represent and support them,' the letter states. 'We are writing to urge you to use the full power of your office to bring essential financial relief to all working people in America, by ensuring that a $15 federal minimum wage is included in the budget reconciliation process, regardless of the opinion of the parliamentarian.'

Progressive lawmakers are also urging Harris to ignore chief Senate parliamentarian Elizabeth MacDonough and tell the clerk to call the roll for a vote.

“I don’t think we can go back to voters and say, ‘Look, I know ... we promised it, but because of an unelected parliamentarian who gave us a ruling, we couldn’t do it.’ Nobody’s going to buy that'

'People don't care about listening to the parliamentarian,' Rep. Cori Bush (D-Mo.) tweeted. 'People care about getting the relief they need. Do what it takes to raise the minimum wage to at least $15.'

Rep. Ro Khanna (D-Calif.) tweeted, 'I'm sorry—an unelected parliamentarian does not get to deprive 32 million Americans the raise they deserve. This is an advisory, not a ruling... Harris needs to disregard and rule a $15 minimum wage... We were elected to deliver for the people. It's time we do our job.'

House Speaker Nancy Pelosi (D-Calif.), while avoiding the robust language of some of her more progressive colleagues, said on Friday: 'As a matter of practice, I don't get involved with the United States Senate. But as a matter of values, I can just say, we will not rest until we pass the $15 minimum wage.'

If Harris were to use her power to keep the $15 minimum wage in the coronavirus relief bill, the two Democratic senators who have come out against the pay hike—Sens. Joe Manchin (D-W.Va.) and Krysten Sinema (D-Ariz.)—would be forced to drop their opposition to the popular proposal, or vote to torpedo the entire $1.9 trillion aid package due to its inclusion.

All 100K, 150K and 200K runners register for 200K and see what you can do on race day. Are you strong enough to grind onward when the going gets tough? or do you take the early exit

The race will find your weaknesses and exploit them. At the height of your suffering the race directors will offer you choices…temptations…do you take an official finish on the shorter distance (50K, 100K, 150K) and their beautiful awards? Or can you give just a few more loops to earn the very exclusive 200KM buckle? It is tempting….do you end your journey for the reward now, or continue to endure the challenge to earn the most coveted award of the race?

Racing Distances

All of the “Long Ultra” runners start as 200K participants, toeing the line together. They all have the chance to continue or drop at any time. Some may drop out at 50K unable or unwilling to go further, while others will continue for more. But if you find yourself thinking…”maybe I could do a little more and get that buckle”, the race directors will let you and play the role of devil on your shoulder, whispering in your ear “it’s only 2 more loops…..how hard can it be?” If you set out for the full 200K but find yourself feeling weak and worn down, thinking that a 100k buckle is “good enough”…so too will the race tempt you.

All Long Ultra runners can choose to run any distance on race day. Are you tough enough to make your goal? or maybe you’re tougher than you give yourself credit for?

50K only the “short ultra”. You’re maybe new to Ultras or know you don’t have the time to commit to the long ultras. you must complete the 2 loops to get the challenge coin. You can upgrade on race day….but will you be strong enough to do that? How will you define your race?

Awards and Results

Participants who complete 50K (2 loops of the course) and decline to go further will receive a custom challenge coin/medallion. A token to remind them of the distance they achieved and what more can still lie ahead. Their time will be recorded as an official 50K finish.

Participants who push a mere 2 loops beyond that will receive the first buckle of the race. A beautiful antique brass finished buckle emblazoned with the distance they overcame – 100Km – it’s a stunning buckle and it may be tempting to stop here…you’ve already accomplished so much..and you’ll be given full credit for a 100K finish…..

But can you give just two laps more? Do you really hurt that bad? 150km rewards the runner with a glorious buckle in a breath-taking nickle finish. It proudly displays your distance of 150Km. You’ll get full credit for a 150k finish…Can this motivate you this far? So close ….but only 2 more laps and you’d have the 200….. 2 is a small number! why quit now?

For those who dig the deepest come the ultimate rewards of the race. The beautiful highly detailed two tone 200km buckle. A work of art. The apex of accomplishment for the weekend. Exclusively for the runners who overcame the temptations of the lower distances or who did more than they ever believed to be possible.

But be warned: those who forgo a finish at a certain distance in an attempt to reach beyond and fail (passing 100K for example and failing to reach 150K) will be counted as a DNF. To loosely quote TS Eliot: Only those who risk going too far, can find out how far they can truly go. There is no reward without risk.

The male and female who win the “Furthest and the Fastest” will receive an additional award for their efforts….there will also be an award for the last place runner who survived cutoffs and exhaustion to finish in the face of seemingly insurmountable odds yo become the “Furthest and Slowest”. These are guaranteed to be high end pieces that you will display proudly in your home. To the victors go the spoils.
