Florida Minimum Wage Reaches 15 Dollars
Florida has raised its minimum wage to 15 dollars per hour. However, reports show this rate remains far below the income required to afford typical housing costs across the state.
United States minimum wage earner pay in Florida rose to $15 per hour following a $1 increase that took effect Tuesday morning. The adjustment marks a step in a multi-year voter-approved plan to lift the state floor from previous levels. The change still leaves full-time workers far short of the income required to cover basic housing expenses across the state.
