GOP minimum wages

Return to top.

"Study after study has found that raising minimum wages has a positive effect on employment." - John Driscoll. Member of the Patriotic Millionaires. Sep 12, 2024 article.

Why do US Republican leaders hate Americans? Why won't they raise the US federal minimum wage above $7.25?
2021 April 22: 62% in US support a $15 federal minimum wage. Stop voting in Republicans if you don't want the low minimum wages found in Republican states.

7 Oct 2021: Reallocation effects of the minimum wage. "In January 2015, Germany introduced a uniform minimum wage of €8.50 ($9.47 an hour today). ... boosted wages of low-wage workers, did not lower employment, and induced a reallocation toward more productive establishments." 11 Jan 2022: Minimum wage in Germany to be raised once again in 2022. It's $13.28 an hour in 2024, and Germany has universal healthcare.

A $15 minimum wage would cost jobs, right? Probably not, economists say.
