A proposal to raise the minimum wage in Minneapolis has drawn contention from some who think it will negatively affect businesses.
The petition, with over 8,000 signatures, was received by the City Council Friday. The proposal would raise the city’s minimum wage incrementally over several years to $15 per hour.
If passed by the council, voters could expect to see the city charter amendment on the November ballot.
