Obama Calls for Minimum Wage Rise and Equal Pay as Elections Approach

<Mr. Obama also referred to his executive order in February requiring that federal contractors in 2015 increase their minimum hourly wage to $10.10 from $7.25.>


Like I have said before... I have no real objection to this.. I think it should be $10.10 in urban areas and maybe $9 in rural.. Local regulators can raise it above that level if they feel local economic conditions merit it.
