Ryan Gilbert is running in a packed Democrat primary in August to determine who will run against Estes in November.

Gilbert discusses minimum wage, living wages, small businesses, taxes, paperwork, overhead, and pricing. He says he supports raising wages and describes paying a position at his law firm more than he had been paid for similar work. He also discusses why businesses struggle and says higher prices are often about profit rather than only rising costs.
