Organizers of the ongoing fast-food strikes plan to bring their fight for a $15 minimum wage to the Republican presidential debate in Milwaukee next week.

In addition to staging protests outside of the GOP debate on Tuesday, demonstrators around the country will also go on strike and hold protests in 270 different U.S. cities, reports USA Today. Low-wage workers in the fast-food, home care, child care, farming and retail industries will also gather at local city halls to kick off a new campaign to push their colleagues to vote for candidates who support a $15 living wage.

The protest is being organized by Fight for $15, a campaign funded by the Service Employees International Union (SEIU) that has been organizing strikes by fast food workers across the country since 2012 in effort to increase pay for all low-wage workers.

Allies of the minimum wage movement say the goal of Tuesday's demonstration is to be heard by the candidates in the 2016 election and mobilize workers to vote next year for candidates who support minimum wage hikes and the right to unionize.

"The Fight for $15 has shown it can influence the politics around wages and the economy," Neera Tanden, president of the Center for American Progress, said in a statement, according to The Hill. "This movement is creating a new voting bloc that frankly has too often been ignored by the political process."

Fight for $15 plans to hold voter registration drives targeting the millions of Americans who earn less than $15 per hour in the months leading up to the 2016 election.

"We're putting politicians on notice that we're going to hold them accountable," said Kendall Fells, the organizing director of Fight for $15.

"This is not about a candidate, and it's not about a party," added Kendall, adding workers will vote for candidates of any party that support their issues.
