Show Notes
Pennsylvania House lawmakers are set to vote on a bill raising the minimum wage to $15 by 2029, starting at $11 in 2027, $13 in 2028, and $15 in 2029. The current $7.25 minimum wage has been in place since 2009 and is lower than neighboring states. Democrats support the increase for low-wage workers, while Republicans and business groups express concerns about potential negative impacts on small businesses and prices. The bills fate lies in the Senate, where debate on balancing worker pay and business needs is expected to intensify.
