D C Council Approves 11 50 Minimum Wage Hike in DC
The D C Council voted unanimously to raise DC’s minimum wage to 11.50 an hour in stages through 2016 tied to inflation. The plan sets 9 50 in 2015 10 50 in July 2015 and 11 50 in July 2016 with future increases to CPI. Mayor Gray supports broader talks while Wal Mart opposition and business concerns loom. Police paid sick time for restaurant workers also approved.
