Vice President Kamala Harris said for the first time Tuesday that she backs hiking the federal minimum wage to at least $15 an hour, after blasting former President Donald Trump for dodging a question about whether he wants to raise it.
Seattle started the movement for a $15 minimum wage in 2014. It passed and was slowly phased in, finishing the rollout in 2021. It’s also aligned to inflation, so the current minimum wage (in 2024) is $20.76 per hour.
Any minimum wage legislation not tied to inflation is a half measure. Demand what you deserve.
