Seattle's plan to raise the minimum wage to $15 an hour and the recent votes on the "State of Jefferson" concept form the backbone for this week's VENTSday segment.

We do not schedule guests for Wednesday at 8:30, because that's the time for VENTSday, your chance to vent (politely, please) on a pair of topics in the news. 

We bring the topics, you bring the opinions. 

It's VENTSday on The Jefferson Exchange, and you participate by calling 1-800-838-3760 or 541-552-6782 or emailing JX@jeffnet.org.

This week's topics restated:

  • Where would you like the minimum wage set? Should there be a MAXIMUM wage?
  • Should the "State of Jefferson" idea continue, or take a breather?
