“But not everyone is celebrating a fatter paycheck. Public employers may not be bound by the $15 ordinance. Seattles biggest employer, with 39,000 employees, is the University of Washington. Officials say the money is not currently there to pay 2,600 student employees $11 an hour. They still are making the state minimum wage of $9.47.”
LOL. When tuition goes up to reflect a higher minimum wage will there be any complaints?
No complaints, the trustfunders will just have to take more cash out of the dresser and cash their checks more frequently ...
