Fg approval new minimum wage

You're referring to the recent news about the new minimum wage approval!

As of January 1, 2022, the federal minimum wage in the United States has been increased to $7.25 per hour. This is the first increase in over a decade, and it's a significant step towards ensuring that workers earn a living wage.

The new minimum wage was approved as part of the Consolidated Appropriations Act, 2022, which was signed into law by President Joe Biden on December 27, 2021. The act also included a provision to increase the minimum wage for tipped workers, who will now earn at least $2.13 per hour.

While this is a positive development, it's worth noting that many experts and advocates are calling for a higher minimum wage to ensure that workers can afford the basic necessities of life. Some states and cities have already implemented higher minimum wages, and there are ongoing efforts to raise the federal minimum wage to $15 per hour or higher.

What are your thoughts on the new minimum wage approval? Do you think it's a step in the right direction, or do you think it's not enough to ensure a living wage for all workers?
