That doesn't mean Danders signed it. We've got a massive list of all the things he did, and raising the minimum wage isn't listed anywhere. He'd been putting all these other bills through the legislature.

I assumed that everything that IRL Governor did that were not listed, Danders also did.

Except we'd already established that he didn't do some of those things, like with guns. A minimum wage increase might not have even been written up with all the other stuff he was doing.

I thought the rule was it was the same except for pointed out differences?

That's never been the rule. We assume when there's no major changes in the app that the economy stats etc. for the state stay about the same

The min wage is something that he would have definitely done.

Its something that wouldn't have even necessarily happened. Danders was slamming through an unheard of amount of legislation in a very limited timeframe of the session, remember? There wouldn't even really be a chance to put through another piece on top of the already ludicrous amount

He definitely would have done min wage. I do not have time to write up each and everyone of his accomplishments, but raising the min wage is something he definitely would have done.

You can't just add on things he did after the fact, especially when you already have him doing more than anyone else ever had.

I really thought that it was implied that min wage was one of the legislation pieces slammed through.

You can't pass everything. You already have him passing more legislation than ever before in history, and somehow doing this with balanced budgets every single year. You can't just add even more onto that whenever it's convenient.
