Legislature rejects bid to raise Kansas minimum wage
A motion to send Frownfelter's plan to raise Kansas state minimum wage from 2.65 to 5.85 per hour back to the House Commerce and Labor Committee passed 63 to 58, effectively killing the measure. The vote split along party lines with Republicans approving and Democrats opposing. Several lawmakers noted lack of agreement on a wage bill and limited time to consider it this session.
