And yeah, $15 is still too low. 4 years is still too long. But there are still 18M people who make less than $10 an hour and increase the wealth of people at the poverty line by like $20B. Not gonna complain too much on this one.
Most places have already independently raised their minimum to $10. Some are doing $12. This is totally pointless. If the biggest minimum wage offenders are already almost to $15, it means $15 is too low right now. And this will make it $15 in 5 years
It is, but peoole who have to work min wage due to felonies will at least get a raise and thats good. Lots of states still have 7.25 min wage which is shit.
I agree, but this is not a victory, it's the barest of concessions and has 5 years to be stonewalled.
I see we agree.
Yes, this is more of a spit in our faces than anything
I mean there are many places that should have s higher wage than the national minimum. $15 minimum wage nationally makes it easier to go higher than that in some cities and states
