NH labor leaders to take up minimum wage hike fight | New Hampshire Politics:
"New Hampshire established a state minimum wage in 1949. In 2011 when the Republican-controlled Legislature removed the state minimum wage from the books, then-Gov. John Lynch, a Democrat, vetoed it. He said a repeal would “undermine our state’s economic strategy.”
The veto was overridden by the House and Senate. State Rep. Jeff Goley, D-Manchester, had argued that the state should not give up its ability to set a minimum wage above the federal threshold.
New Hampshire is one of 19 states where the “minimum wage” is the same as the federal rate."
...ero.
