The bill, proposed by Assembly Speaker Craig Coughlin, would exempt farmworkers, teens, tipped workers, seasonal workers, and those at firms with fewer than ten employees from earning $15 until 2029—an eleven year phase in. NJPP estimates this bill will leave behind more than a third of the state's low-paid workforce, including many who need the raise the most.

Act now and tell your legislators to support a clean $15 minimum wage bill that leaves no worker behind!
