Trenton NJ, Governor Murphy and Lab or Commissioner Asaro-Angelo have been taking victory laps on New Jersey’s January 1st minimum wage raise :
Raising the minimum wage has been a top priority of mine since day one,” said Governor Murphy. “There is no doubt that inflation has had an impact on every New Jerseyan. Now that we are close to surpassing the $15 per hour milestone, it’s important that we continue to ensure that everyone working in New Jersey has access to a livable wage.”
“Raising and aggressively enforcing the minimum wage signals to employers and workers alike that New Jersey values its workforce,” said Labor Commissioner Robert Asaro-Angelo. “While our Department’s Workforce efforts try to ensure workers receiving minimum wage are only doing so for a small part of their career, this is a proud moment for New Jersey as we become one of the few of states with a minimum wage above $15 an hour that will continue to be adjusted each year for inflation.”
Pizza Hut is laying off more than 1,200 delivery drivers in California. The layoffs, which will take place through the end of February, come as California’s minimum wage is about to go up by $4. Fast-food workers in the state are set to get a pay bump of close to 30% in April as the minimum wages rises from $16 to $20 an hour.

The result= fewer jobs for entry level or part time employees.
Look for more self service kiosks at fast food places for orders and self checkout at stores
Water finds its own level…
No, they’re just going to raise the price of the item.
I’m glad Ole scumbag Phil is so proud of himself for sporting his new eyeliner and his new piece of hair that all of a sudden appeared over night. We could have sent him and his weird family on their way to anywhere but here and the ball was dropped… I guess we shouldn’t complain too much about Phillip cause he was reflected, wasn’t he… hmmm
Minimum Wage is up there with 3 Card Monte in terms of how many people fall for it.
Will cause employers to find a way to either cut jobs or automate
Baba boo’eeeeeeeee
As if anybody eats Pizza Hut…
Absolute dog shit.
retailers cannot and many have not survived minimum wage increases. It’s gotten to the point where there are little services services because they cannot afford the to pay for to many hours.
minimum wage is minimum because it’s for entry-level jobs. Raising minimum wage takes raise money away from hard-working people who have struggled to advance through oerformance
Not a single person who supports minimum wage has ever successfully owned a business.
….So says a bitter failed business owner.
yet still true
