The LA Times reports a deal has been struck in Sacramento raising the minimum wage to $8.00 per hour, but first to $7.50 on 1/1/07. As I've mentioned, this will impact other workers besides minimum wage workers, because it will raise the threshhold for the salary test for non-hourly exemptions.
This one appears to be real. The GOP promises a fight, but without the Governor, they don't have the numbers to do anything.
