Rep. Ilhan Omar (D., Minn.) used some fuzzy math on Thursday while making a point on pay gaps at a hearing about raising the minimum wage.

Omar spoke with a Missouri McDonald's shift manager named Terrence Wise at a House Education and Labor Committee hearing pushing for a federal minimum wage raise to $15 an hour.

"So the CEO of McDonald's [Steve Easterbrook] gets paid $21.8 million," she said. "Can you share with us what someone in your position at McDonald's gets paid annually?"

"Not that much," Wise said, drawing laughter. "I make $11 an hour at my job, currently."

"So the median pay for a McDonald's worker was $7,000 in 2017, and that is the pay gap between the CEO that's making $21.8 [million] to the $7,000 that a worker who has put in 40 hours a day[sic] gets paid," Omar said. "To me, that just morally does not sit well."

Omar meant to say 40 hours a week, as there are only 24 hours in a day. However, if a full-time employee worked for $11 an hour at 40 hours a week, 50 weeks a year, he or she would make about $22,000 a year before taxes. The average hourly rate for a McDonald's employee is about $9 an hour, according to the company, which comes out to roughly $18,000 a year for a full-time worker before taxes.

In 2017, the CEO of McDonalds got paid $21.8 million. The median pay for a McDonald's worker that year was $7,000. This is a moral outrage. We need a $15 minimum wage so that no one is paid a poverty wage. pic.twitter.com/TIxZMlzQF6 #RaiseTheWage — Rep. Ilhan Omar (@Ilhan) February 7, 2019

Omar tweeted out a video clip of the exchange and called the pay gap a "moral outrage," calling for a $15 minimum wage "so that no one is paid a poverty wage."

McDonald's, however, uses a heavy amount of part-time employees and has a global workforce, both factors that drive down the median wage. According to the Associated Press, as flagged on Twitter by reporter Jeryl Bier, McDonald's defines a median employee "as a part-time hourly restaurant crew member in Poland:"
