MPs have the power to put pressure on the government to make sure the national minimum wage is properly supported.

We want MPs to know just how important the national minimum wage is. You can write to your MP using our sample letter. We asked MPs to sign Early Day Motion 1163 calling for a celebration, defence, and improvements in the national minimum wage

 Text of Early Day Motion
 That this House welcomes the 10th anniversary of the introduction of the National Minimum Wage on 1 April 2009; applauds the fact that employees in more than one million jobs have benefited, two-thirds of them women; believes that annual uprating and effective enforcement are the key to its continued success; regards the current economic climate as an opportunity to increase the spending power of the low paid; calls for an end to discriminatory lower age rates for young workers; and further calls on the Low Pay Commission and Government to end the exemption of some apprenticeships from the national minimum wage.
