Labor and Democrats blast Carter wage formula
Labor leaders and congressional Democrats denounce President Carter's proposed minimum wage plan as locking millions into poverty. Labor Secretary Ray Marshall testifies for a $2.50 start with automatic rises to $2.73 in 1978 and $2.95 thereafter, far below demands for a $3 minimum and higher early boosts. AFL-CIO head George Meany calls the proposal a "shameful" setback for economic justice as the poverty gap widens.
