| CORRECTION |
|
Last week we mistakenly reported that
lobbyists, representing minimum wage
workers who contributed heavily to
lawmakers' reelection campaigns, used
their clout to force a robust increase in
the minimum wage. In fact these workers
have no lobbyists, no money to contribute
and no clout to use, and the bill favors
business interests. We apologize for any
confusion resulting from the error. |
