Delaware On Verge Of Raising Minimum Wage

Delaware is about to raise its minimum wage from the federally-mandated $7.25 an hour to $8.25 an hour.

If the state raises its wage, it will join a growing number of other states and cities taking action to push pay higher while movement stalls at the federal level. California recently raised its wage to $10 an hour and lawmakers have taken steps toward higher wages in Massachusetts and Washington, D.C. Voters have also approved of a raises in New Jersey, two cities in California, Albuquerque, and a small town in Washington state where the wage was raised to $15 an hour. Some other states are also working on potential raises.
