Democrat Senator's dramatic 'no' vote on $15 minimum wage

Arizona Senator Kyrsten Sinema voted "no" in a dramatic fashion on Friday against a $15 federal minimum wage. The Democrat voted against the wage rise, which was proposed as part of a Covid-19 relief package.

In total seven Democrats crossed party lines to vote against the debate.
