HARRISBURG, June 20,
2007 - -
State Sen. Jay Costa, Jr. (D-Allegheny) today reminded workers and
employers that on July 1, Pennsylvania's minimum wage will increase for
thousands of workers.
“This
increase in wages will undoubtedly help hardworking families pay the
bills over the hot summer months ahead,” Costa said. “It is also
important for employers and workers to understand that the new federal
law will not affect most Pennsylvania workers.”
