Whether American workers will get a minimum wage of 15 dollars an hour is now in the hands of the senate parliamentarian, an appointed office. Turning this decision over to an employee is ludicrous, but the parliamentarian will make her ruling, and that will be that.
The vice-president has the power to overrule the parliamentarian, but Biden has made it clear that Kamala Harris will not do that. He won't let her.
In the past a Publican VP named Rockefeller over-ruled a parliamentarian, but the Publicans have something the Democratic party lacks: the balls needed to govern and get the job done.
