Summary

AI-generated summary, report an error

This bill would raise the federal minimum wage in steps. Employers with $1 billion or more in yearly revenue or 500 or more workers would reach $25 per hour in 2031, and other employers would reach $25 per hour in 2038. After that, the minimum wage would be set at two-thirds of the national median hourly wage and adjusted each year. The bill would phase out the lower minimum wages now allowed for tipped workers, workers under 20, and workers with disabilities paid under special certificates. It would also count incarcerated workers as employees covered by federal minimum wage law.
