Bill Summary

An Act amending section 23-363, Arizona Revised Statutes; relating to the minimum wage.

AI Summary

This bill amends Arizona's minimum wage law to gradually increase the minimum wage to $15 per hour by 2024. Specifically, the bill raises the minimum wage to $10 per hour in 2017, $10.50 in 2018, $11 in 2019, $12 in 2020, and $15 in 2024. After 2024, the minimum wage will be adjusted annually based on the increase in the cost of living. The bill also retains the existing provision that allows employers to pay tipped employees a lower minimum wage if the employees' tips and wages together equal at least the full minimum wage. The bill requires a three-fourths majority vote in the legislature to take effect, due to constitutional requirements.
