The current minimum wage is $7.25. The last time it increased in Wisconsin was 2009.

If it had merely kept up with inflation it would be at least $10.88 today.

If it had increased at the same rate as home prices, it would be $15.35.

It’s past time to raise the damn wage.

Remember how the Democrats proposed a $15 minimum wage and even had bipartisan support to increase it above $10. But that darn Joe Manchin...or was it Sienma...or maybe the parlimentarian? I keep forgetting to keep track of their excuses.
