This is floating around social media. I guess they have problems with reading comprehension. They are correct that a congressman named Ryan voted yea on the minimum wage hike in 2007. The problem is that Ryan is Tim Ryan of Ohio, a democrat. Paul Ryan voted no. Read the Roll Call on the vote here.
Asshats.

Also the minimum wage between July 24th, 2007 and July 23rd, 2008 was $5.85 per hour (it was $5.15/hour prior to July 24th, 2007). As opposed to the current $7.25 per hour. This information I have gathered from the Department of Labor.
