IGG strongly condemns #farmers' association attacks on #minimum wage: Get off of our colleagues - same wage for same work!

"If both otherwise do everything they can to give agricultural corporations an advantage over small farms, they can only imagine supposed relief for these farms on the backs of the hardest-working and most vulnerable employees in agriculture."

California raises minimum wage for fast food workers to $20

California Gov. Gavin Newsom has signed a law raising the minimum wage for fast food workers to $20 per hour. The raise takes effect April 1. It applies to fast food restaurants that have at least 60 locations nationwide. It does not apply to restaurants that make and sell their own bread. California is now among the first states to have a minimum wage specifically for fast food workers. California’s minimum wage for all other workers is $15.50 per hour. That’s among the highest in the country. Newsom has not said if he would sign into law a similar wage increase for health care workers.
