Urge Your State Senator to Support Increasing the Minimum Wage

New Jersey's working families support S-3 (Sweeney / Vitale / Codey / Buono), which seeks to increase the state’s minimum wage to $8.50 and make annual adjustments based upon the Consumer Price Index (CPI).  The New Jersey State AFL-CIO strongly supports the legislation.

Corporate opposition to increasing the minimum wage in New Jersey is significant.  They continue to press the false argument that increasing the minimum wage translates into job loss, despite widespread academic research that illustrates otherwise.
