    “President Biden is disappointed in this outcome, as he proposed having the $15 minimum wage as part of the American Rescue Plan. He respects the parliamentarian’s decision and the Senate’s process,” White House press secretary Jen Psaki said in a statement released Thursday night.

    “He will work with leaders in Congress to determine the best path forward because no one in this country should work full time and live in poverty,” Psaki continued.
