A $28 minimum wage for California construction workers is dead — killed by construction workers
A proposal to set a $28 minimum wage for California housing construction workers failed after opposition from the Building Trades union coalition. The wage provision was removed from Assembly Bill 1751 before it passed the Senate Housing Committee, though the bill remains alive for further legislative action.
