The Fight for $15 is an American political movement advocating for the minimum wage to be raised to USD$15per hour. The federal minimum wage was last set at $7.25 per hour in 2009. The movement has involved strikes by child care, home healthcare, airport, gas station, convenience store, and fast food workers for increased wages and the right to form a labor union. The "Fight for $15" movement started in 2012, in response to workers' inability to cover their costs on such a low salary, as well as the stressful work conditions of many of the service jobs which pay the minimum wage.

  • Le Mouvement « Fight for 15 $ » décrit l'ensemble des groupes de revendication œuvrant pour l'augmentation du salaire minimum à 15$ l'heure aux États-Unis. Débutant en novembre 2012 à New York avec une importante grève de travailleurs de la restauration rapide pour l'amélioration de leurs conditions de travail, le mouvement s'étend à la grandeur des États-Unis, puis à partir de 2014, à plusieurs pays comme le Brésil, le Royaume-Uni, le Canada et le Japon.
