S minimum wage took a potentially fatal blow on Thursday as a Senate official ruled that Democratic lawmakers cannot fast track the proposal through Congress.

S最低工資在週四受到了致命的打擊，因為參議院官員裁定民主黨立法者不能通過國會快速跟蹤該提案。

Democrats had hoped to include the minimum wage hike in there $1.9 trillion relief bill, which they intended to pass through the Democratic controlled Senate without Republican votes.

民主黨人曾希望將提高最低工資列入1.9萬億美元的救濟法案中，他們打算在沒有共和黨投票的情況下通過民主黨控制的參議院。

In a statement, White House spokeswoman Jen Psaki said President Joe Biden was disappointed in the decision.

白宮發言人Jen Psaki在一份聲明中表示，總統喬-拜登對這一決定感到失望。

The current federal minimum wage is $7.25 an hour and was last raised in 2000 and nine.

目前聯邦最低工資標準為每小時7.25美元，上一次提高是在2000年和9。

Biden and most of his fellow Democrats want to double the minimum wage to $15 an hour by 2025.

拜登和他的大多數民主黨同僚都希望在2025年前將最低工資翻倍至每小時15美元。

But Thursday's ruling means that Democrats will likely have to pass a separate bill and undertake the difficult task of garnering some Republican support for the measure.

但週四的裁決意味著，民主黨人很可能要通過一項單獨的法案，並承擔起爭取一些共和黨人支持的艱鉅任務。

Senator Lindsey Graham, the top Republican on the Senate Budget Committee, welcome to the Senate parliamentarian's ruling on Twitter, writing that quote reconciliation cannot be used as a vehicle to pass major legislative change by either party on a simple majority vote.

參議院預算委員會的最高共和黨參議員林賽-格雷厄姆在推特上對參議院議員的裁決表示歡迎，他寫道，報價和解不能作為任何一方以簡單多數票通過重大立法變革的工具。

Yet despite Thursday's decision, House Speaker Nancy Pelosi said that the Democratic controlled chamber would still include the minimum wage provisions before sending the relief bill to the Senate.

然而儘管週四做出了決定，但眾議院議長南希-佩洛西表示，民主黨控制的眾議院在向參議院提交救濟法案之前，仍將納入最低工資條款。

That would leave Democratic Senate Majority Leader Chuck Schumer with the consequential choice of either removing the provision or challenging Thursday's decision.

這將使民主黨參議院多數黨領袖查克-舒默（Chuck Schumer）不得不做出相應的選擇，要麼取消該條款，要麼挑戰週四的決定。
