State Rep. Tarik Khan, D-Phila., yesterday voted to increase Pennsylvania’s minimum wage to $15 by 2026.
House Bill 1500 would increase the minimum wage in Pennsylvania to:
“For four years, I supported myself by working several minimum-wage and near-minimum-wage jobs,” Khan said. “No one in Philadelphia can live on $7.25 an hour. I'm so proud that we were able to move the state closer to paying hard-working Pennsylvanians a living wage that can support them and their families."
House Bill 1500 is a companion bill to S.B. 743, introduced by state Sen. Dan Laughlin, chair of the Senate Republican Policy Committee.
The bill now moves on to the Senate for consideration.
