Relating to: a state minimum wage, allowing the enactment of local minimum wage ordinances, and granting rule-making authority. (FE)

Summary

The bill replaces existing wage statutes with a schedule that raises the minimum wage each year from 2026 through 2034, with lower rates for employers that have 50 or fewer workers. It also sets lower tipped‑employee minimums, defines how the wage will be adjusted for inflation after 2030, and gives the labor department authority to set rules for special job categories and exemptions. Local governments would be allowed to adopt their own minimum‑wage ordinances under the new framework.
