We, the people of Colorado, ask that you raise the state minimum wage to a living wage, at least $12 an hour. We ask that it be automatically adjusted as needed by inflation and cost of living. We ask that you do this at the state level and do not wait on Washington, D.C., to raise the federal minimum wage.
Why is this important?
We can't wait for Washington to raise the minimum wage. Colorado now has all three branches of the state government in Democratic hands. So lets take action here in this state.
