California Minimum Wage Increase To $10 An Hour Passes Both Houses, Gov. Brown Expected To Sign

Gov. Jerry Brown and the leaders of the California state Legislature announced strong support Wednesday for a bill that would raise the state's minimum wage to $10 an hour.

?The minimum wage has not kept pace with rising costs,? Brown said in a statement. ?This legislation is overdue and will help families that are struggling in this harsh economy.?

Assemblyman Luis Alejo's (D-Salinas) bill, AB 10, would raise the minimum wage in California from $8.00 an hour to $10.00 an hour. The bill passed the state Assembly in May and is expected to be voted on in the Senate this week.

UPDATE: The state Senate approved the minimum wage increase on Thursday. It is expected to win final approval from the Assembly later Thursday or Friday, before it goes to the governor. Brown has said he will sign the bill into law.
Alejo introduced similar bills in 2011 and 2012 that both died because of opposition by Republican members and business lobbyists, who called the proposal a "job killer."

Alejo's chief of staff, Marva Diaz, told The Huffington Post that this bill is stronger because the two leaders of the Legislature have been added as co-authors: Senate President Pro Tempore Darrell Steinberg (D-Sacramento) and Assembly Speaker John A. Pérez (D-Los Angeles).

Perez disputed the claim that raising the minimum wage would reduce jobs. ?The real winner here is the economy. A $10 hour minimum wage boosts earnings by $4,000 a year and will put $2.6 billion dollars back into the hands of workers,? Pérez said in a statement. ?This is money that will be spent at grocery stores, on school supplies and invested in education, and that ultimately strengthens the recovery and ensures California?s job market continues growing faster than the rest of the nation.?

California's minimum wage is among the highest in the country, although it hasn't been raised since 2008. AB 10 would raise the minimum wage in two separate one-dollar increments: from $8 per hour today to $9 per hour, effective July 1, 2014, and from $9 per hour to $10 per hour, effective Jan. 1, 2016.

Doesn't sound too bad really, toots.

96ukssob 09-13-2013 07:29 AM

CA has always had a higher minimum wage because people believe the BS of "living in California cost more." Nonsense!

This will only open the door to MORE taxes for those people... so you theoretically make more, but at the end, it will probably be the same amount

TheSquealer 09-13-2013 07:32 AM

Well, since California is the model of fiscal understanding and responsibility, it only makes sense. I mean its not like they are perpetually bankrupt, have high taxes, high cost of living and are driving people and entire industries out of the state in droves.

Vendzilla 09-13-2013 07:35 AM

Wait to see how this effects everyone, probably bring more poor people to California just like we get more illegal aliens because of sanctuary cities and because our welfare pays higher we get more poor people.

So all the minimum value society members will flock to CA for the higher paying flipping jobs?
Way to go.

pornguy 09-13-2013 07:58 AM

Nice model to prove that the minimum wage that high is NOT going to help.

Magnetron 09-13-2013 07:59 AM

So some CEOs don't get to take home the usual millions in yearly bonuses that they really weren't worth in the first place.

Shucks.

What's funny is California is so diverse, not just with its people but also its geography. The farming valleys are absolutely massive and make up a huge part of the country's agricultural output. Raising minimum wage in poor valley towns to make up for the high cost of Los Angeles living does not make much sense to me? basically sounds like the inner-city politicians have way more power than the rural politicians (which I would guess is fairly common), but those rural businesses are certainly going to take a hit.

They should put up a new sign on the Tijuana entry. "Hello migrant workers, we welcome you!"

On the bright side, this could spur technological innovations. Speed trains to bring in workers from Oregon, Nevada, Arizona?

You're kidding yourself. CEOs will not take the hit. Neither will stockholders.

They'll just do some layoffs and make each remaining emp do the work of 2.

Which is why getting worked up over a min wage increase is silly.

Yes. And some CEO's from not so profitable businesses may close their business overall.

Its funny how peasants see only one side.

There have been people for decades that have wanted to split the state in 3 states. When I had my house in Shasta Lake California. I could see two glaciers from my front yard.
$15 a hour in the area was considered a good job and you could buy a home with that kind of income.

You, like all other poor people have no real clue how business works. The added costs are ALWAYS passed to consumers. YOU are paying for the pay raise... not the "evil corporation". Fucking moron.

_Richard_ 09-13-2013 08:31 AM

congrats :) too bad not a bit higher, but after they start seeing growth i think this minimum wage will continue to climb

As long as an individual is satisfied with the amount of money he is hauling in, why should that individual give a flying fuck about anyone or anything else?

Someone is making $10 an hour. Let's rage for hours on end and start a riot over it. A whole $2 an hour raise! Clearly the Communists have won and Capitalism is over.

Riiiiight. Everyone here knows why you are hoping for a high minimum wage. It's going to be your retirement plan.

My thoughts exactly in regards to signupdammit remark above yours. The Hamburlgars need to plan ahead.

Not just someone. Lazy bastards who are not much of a value to the companies will be making that as well. And they will be getting the whole huge 25% increase for their crappy service.

It works quite well for those that actually adapt. Not so well for dipshits who are in a perpetual state of befuddlement at the fact that money isn't just falling out of the sky.

We all understand that a high minimum wage is very important to you, _Richard_ and signupdamit. When you have no skills, no education and no real ability to make money in the very business you've been in for years... the future has to look pretty bleak. Add on top of that your mom bitching that you didn't make your bed, your dad threatening to throw you out of the house and add to that, the constant worry of your bicycle getting stolen and life has to be pretty stressful.

Print these threads out so you have something to amuse yourself when waiting in line, applying for food stamps and welfare or so you have something to keep you laughing in between Johns you are sucking off at the park to make ends meet.

Then the company can fire them and hire someone else instead who is worth the wage.

Magnetron 09-13-2013 09:05 AM

Whenever someone addresses me as a peasant or poor, I just have to sit back and laugh in my house that is completely paid for on the farm where I have fresh beef, chicken, pork, eggs and produce.

Oh, then there is the free clean water ...... not that nasty reclamated stuff with so many chemicals in it that any medications you are taking are probably rendered inneffective .... or methane courtesy of the frakkers ...........

Ummm...... what else ...... oh! I got a guy who clears the snow out of my driveway ..... not a little pussy suburban driveway where you could spit on your mailbox from your front door either.

And ..... uhhh ..... no noisy neighbors, get to hang my laundry outside, gots the Hulu and the Netflix, a 360 Mbps Internets connection, VOIP, cell phone, AC, I-pads, car that gets 39 mpg ..........

Gosh, what else is there that I am missing ............. Maybe it would be easier to list what I don't have .............

I don't have a boat! Or a jet ski! That's it!

I'm so fucking pooooooooooooor!!!!!!!!!!!!!

NooooooooooooooOOOOOOOOOOOOOOpoooooooooooooooooooo o!!!!!!!!!!!

Sounds like you really are living the dream. Surrounded by dirty animals you have to kill for dinner in some backwoods nowhere. All you are missing is the Doomsday Preppers box set, an AR15, a Rambo knife and a bunker.

Will you and _Richard_ have a his and her bath in your bunker? Or will you share the same bathroom?

Just out of curiosity (and please tell me if this is crossing the line)... but you are the top? Or is _Richard_?

In ideal world. In reality - there are not enough of quality people to fill all the job openings. Meaning that some percentage of work force do not even meet minimum wage requirements, but there are not enough of people to replace them all.

Tom_PM 09-13-2013 09:15 AM

Oh no in 3 years someone will have a miniscule raise that, by then, will be eaten by more taxes. Lets get mad.

It is so funny to see someone repeatedly spike their blood pressure in name calling tirades over a topic about money that isn't even his, especially when he makes soooOOOooo much of it himself compared to everyone else at GFY.

Hilarious.

EDIT: What a Dipshit.
