Backers Seek OK for Wage Bill After Narrow House Vote
Washington AP sponsors of minimum wage legislation ask the House to reverse a vote removing 1.6 million small firm employees from coverage.

Dent predicts reversal and cites an intended error in the amendment by Rep. Anderson to block coverage for 995,000 retail and service establishments under the lower business thresholds.
