saw a mowing crew, minority, mowing the projects housing area. Damn, they had a nice new over-sized pick-up...but made me think, since the one dude was sitting in the truck while his "crew" mowed...just how the executive order on min wage was really going to work. I'd bet $100 his "crew" isn't getting paid the fed minimum wage.
On February 12, 2014, President Obama signed Executive Order 13658, “Establishing a Minimum Wage for Contractors,” to raise the minimum wage to $10.10 for all workers on Federal construction and service contracts. The President took this executive action because raising wages will improve the quality and efficiency of services provided to the government. Boosting wages lowers turnover, increases morale, and will lead to higher productivity overall on Federal contracts. The Executive Order directed the Department of Labor to issue regulations to implement the new Federal contractor minimum wage. The Notice of Proposed Rulemaking issued by Secretary of Labor Tom Perez is an important milestone in raising the minimum wage for workers on Federal contracts.
and just WHO is going to pay? we are...the taxpayers.
Does he actually think the contractors are going to "eat" the increase in costs? what an idiot. Guess this is what you think when you're a community organizer and never ran a business.
weird the date says 2014, I thought it was more recent....
Oh, and I can't wait to see the abuse...
