Michigan Minimum Wage Will Top $12 an Hour in February After Court Ruling
Michigan's Supreme Court ruled 4-3 on Wednesday the state's Republican-led legislature in 2018 acted unconstitutionally when it changed the language of a petition that would raise the state’s minimum wage immediately before it became law. The minimum wage in Michigan is currently $10.33 per hour for non-tipped workers and $3.93 per hour for tipped workers. Following the court’s decision, the minimum wage will rise to at least $12 an hour starting Feb. 21. Tipped workers will receive the same minimum wage as non-tipped by 2029.
