CORKER: I've had minimum wage jobs--unlike my opponent. The minimum wage is behind the times, since it hasn't been adjusted for 10 years. We need to look at regions around the country and their cost-of-living. But I'd like to lessen the burden of taxation and regulation on small businesses.
FORD: Corker in the primary was opposed to the minimum wage increase. I've supported it every year in Congress. I did work in minimum wage jobs--as a parking attendant in college
