LOS ANGELES – City council leaders in the nation’s second-largest city voted Tuesday in favor ofhiking the minimum wage to $15 an hour.
The council voted in favor the measure in a 14-1 preliminary vote. The wage hike must still pass a final vote.
The vote followed months of debate over how quickly the current $9 an hour minimum should rise. It is already slated to go to $10 in January. Under the proposal city council will vote on today, Los Angeles would increase its required wage every year so that its hits $15 by July 2020.
If the plan is approved, Los Angeles would join Seattle, San Francisco and other West Coast cities in raising the minimum wage as part of a national campaign to reduce poverty. There has been an aggressive push nationally, led by labor and community groups such as Raise the Wage Coalition, to increase minimum wages for American workers in industries such as bog box retailers and fast food restaurants.
“It’s very significant,” said Paul Sonn, general counsel at the National Employment Law Project. “Los Angeles represents the $15 minimum wage going mainstream.”
