Sen. Bernie Sanders talking, and there are people standing in the background
Sen. Bernie Sanders speaks at a press conference on raising the federal minimum wage.
  • A post from the Economic Policy Institute showed which states are raising their minimum wages at the start of 2024.
  • EPI found this will translate to nearly 10 million workers being impacted.
  • Minimum wage workers in California, Maine, and Michigan will see pay increases, for instance.

Millions of minimum wage workers are set to ring in the new year with a raise. Those regional pay hikes come even as the federal minimum wage lingers untouched at $7.25 an hour.
