I happen to think universal basic income and a high minimum wage work well in combination to produce tighter labor markets, more consumer spending power, and if McDonald's want to lure you out of your rock band or off your couch to go and cook french fries, they ought to have to pay a premium for that.

The source URL (https://medium.com/@davidrolf_1969/why-would-a-labor-leader-support-a-universal-basic-income-22d9d37e1514) returns a 403 Forbidden error, making it impossible to verify whether the page contains this quote. A web search for distinctive phrases in the quote ("rock band", "french fries", "universal basic income", David Rolf) yielded no results. The vote alignment (for, re: "Implement a universal basic income") matches the quote's content. The quote is from 2016, which is older than 2025/2026, and no recent replacement quote was found. Marking as ai_unverifiable due to inaccessible source URL.
