Sen. Hartley--support Speaker Donovan's proposal to raise the state's minimum wage from $8.25 to $8.75 an hour. Connecticut's working families deserve a raise.
Why is this important?
House Speaker Chris Donovan's proposal to raise Connecticut's minimum wage is currently being held up by a few conservative Democrats in the Senate. The 50-cent hourly increase in pay would provide an extra $80 a month in the pockets of over 100,000 people. That's good for families and workers, and it's good for business. Chris Donovan gets it, but Joan Hartley does not. We're calling on Sen. Joan Hartley to support Speaker Donovan's proposal that would make life a little less stressful for thousands of families.
