U.S. Senator and 2016 presidential hopeful Bernie Sanders introduced a bill last week to raise the federal minimum wage to $15 per hour but is currently paying his Senate interns a lower wage.

His plan doesn't go up to $15/hr until 2020, though. He doesn't propose a huge jump, but small increases every year.
