"Workers need a living wage"
SPRINGFIELD – State Senator Christopher Belt (D-Cahokia) released the following statement today regarding his vote to increase the state minimum wage to $15 by 2025.
If approved and signed by the governor, it would be the first minimum wage increase in Illinois in a decade.
“Raising the minimum wage to $15 will help our workers better support our economy,” said Belt, who is a co-sponsor of the measure. “We cannot expect workers or individuals who have to pay back student loans to be able to afford the cost of living when they only make $8.25.”
