http://www.petitionspot.com/petitions/fsulivingwage/ We, the undersigned, petition the Administration of FSU to adopt an ordinance which mandates that all current and future employees of FSU are paid, at minimum, a Living Wage, as defined and adjusted by the cost of living in Tallahassee, Florida. We understand that all full time workers deserve a living wage and that the health, safety and prosperity of FSU employees require wages that afford a comfortable lifestyle. We also understand that many of FSU’s workers live below the poverty line, struggling to pay for basic necessities and take care of their families. Additionally, our communities’ service economies, especially small businesses, benefit from citizens having disposable income. Furthermore, many working men and women are unable to exercise their rights to fair labor negotiations. As a socially responsible institution, we believe Florida State University should adopt an ordinance mandating that all current and future employees of FSU are paid, at minimum, a Living Wage, as defined and adjusted by the cost of living in Tallahassee, Florida to best honor their labor and innate human dignity.
