In the video, Sen. Bushweller said he knew nothing of Pillbury’s attempts to meet with him and when asked why he didn’t vote on the minimum wage legislation, before answering, he said “if you’re just going to stand there and piss and moan then I’m not going to talk to you.”
Sen. Bushweller said he didn’t vote because of potential ramifications to the casino industry. “The reason I didn’t vote was because I was concerned of the job loss at Dover Downs and Midway Slots (Harrington Raceway and Casino).”
Pillsbury, a millennial, said he’s tired of being condescended and that he and his generation are “tired of these old people telling us we don’t know what’s going on in the world when we’re the ones living it.”
