MINIMUM WAGE – Amends existing law to remove language prohibiting a political subdivision from enacting a minimum wage that is higher than the state minimum wage.

Summary

The bill removes the current ban that stops local governments from establishing a minimum wage higher than the state minimum. It would let municipalities and counties raise wages for workers in their jurisdictions, while the state minimum wage rules stay the same. This gives localities flexibility to address cost‑of‑living differences.
