Last week, the Illinois Senate passed a minimum wage increase that will bring the State of Illinois’ minimum wage to $15 per hour in 2025. The bill now moves on to the Illinois House. State Representative Blaine Wilhour is a member of the Labor & Commerce Committee that will be dealing with the bill. He says he’s been shocked by how quickly the matter is moving forward with little research done on it’s effect.
We will talk more with Wilhour coming up tomorrow during NewsCenter.
