Federal government to start payment of the new minimum wage
I think there may be some confusion here.
The federal government in the United States has not announced a new minimum wage that would require immediate payment. However, there have been ongoing efforts to increase the federal minimum wage, which is currently set at $7.25 per hour.
In 2021, the House of Representatives passed the Raise the Wage Act, which would have gradually increased the federal minimum wage to $15 per hour by 2025. However, the bill did not pass the Senate and did not become law.
There have been some state and local governments that have implemented higher minimum wages, but these changes are typically implemented at the state or local level, rather than at the federal level.
If you're looking for information on the current minimum wage laws in your state or locality, I'd be happy to help you with that!
