AI Summary

This bill modifies the definition of "large employer" and "small employer" for the purposes of determining the minimum wage in Minnesota. Specifically, it increases the annual gross volume of sales threshold for a "large employer" from $500,000 to $750,000, and correspondingly increases the threshold for a "small employer" from $500,000 to $750,000. This means that businesses with an annual gross volume of sales between $500,000 and $750,000 will now be considered "large employers" and must pay their employees the higher minimum wage rate set for large employers, rather than the lower rate for small employers.
