The states are free to set their minimums above the federal. The federal rate is then a floor. Maybe the $15 floor is too high a floor for every state. But is there a state in the union where $7.25 an hour is not an insult?
Really odd how dirt-poor WV's representation is so worried about too high a minimum wage, and just about every other remotely liberal policy. Coal and Steel were all union shops back in the day--they'd never settle for no raise for 12 years even for the guys sweeping the floors. Are only the rich allowed to vote there?
