However, $15 has lost significant purchasing power due to the rising cost of food, utilities, rent, and other basic necessities. And $15 itself is not a full living wage in Massachusetts due to the high and growing cost of living in our commonwealth. It’s time to raise the minimum wage again. H.1925/S.1200 would raise the minimum wage to $20 per hour phased in over four years, index the minimum wage to inflation, and make sure that municipal workers are also guaranteed a minimum wage. https://actionnetwork.org/letters/living-wage-2023
