Minimum Wage Fairness Act
Apr. 30, 2014 | S. 2223
This bill would have increased the federal minimum wage from $7.25 to $10.10 by 2016. It would have gradually increased the minimum cash wage for workers who receive tips until it equaled 70% of the federal minimum wage for other workers. The bill failed.
This is Good for working people.
