Wow 2024 thanks so much 🙄🙄🙄🙄

Drive all jobs from NJ good job

Not soon enough.

by then it'll only be worth the current minimum wage...

That's 5 years! By the time you hit 15 you'll need 20.

Faster! Do it faster. The poor in this country are dying as billionaires accumulate more and more. Happy this happened but we must do better.

Well ain't he the big man. Pin a rose on him.

This will hasten the NJ circling-the-drain effect.

I don't really want to disparage any Democrat, but why stretch this over 5 years when his net worth is 6-7 million? Surely he understands what it takes to live! All of the congressmen that promoted higher wages want to put phases on them instead of solving the problem...

What a guy he will be out of office so he won’t take the heat…

Well it’s annoying and unnecessary that they’re taking 5 years to phase it in but it’s still a win. Just wish the SEIU, UFCW and other unions didn’t have to spend so much time and energy pushing politicians to do the right thing

People need more than a higher minimum wage. They need land, rent control, universal healthcare, and correction to past injustices by racist men that kept millions of people in poverty.

2024 is a long way away. Why so long?

Any news about the rape cover up scandal?

That's about the time $15 will get you a loaf of bread and a Snickers bar.

And increase unemployment of young people by....how much?

The ones that will still have jobs. Now Watch the unemployment rates. Liberalism

$150 would be better.

‘for most workers’ ‘by 2024’

Arming teachers in schools will be banned in New York, among other new gun-control measuresTeachers will be banned from carrying guns into schools under a series of gun-control laws approved Tuesday by the state Legislature. People love teachers for many reasons, one being that they don't carry firearms into the classroom. New York needs a mass migration of Conservatives.......FAST! I've got Illinois locked down. This is like putting a “no guns allowed” sign outside a business in a state that allows concealed carry. Might as well put a sign that says “rob me”.
