Bill Summary

AN ACT to amend the labor law, in relation to authorizing local governments to pay higher level of minimum wage benefits

AI Summary

This bill amends the New York labor law to explicitly authorize local governments to establish minimum wage standards that are higher or more protective than the statewide minimum wage requirements. The new "non-preemption clause" clarifies that state law does not prohibit municipalities from setting their own, more generous minimum wage levels within their geographic boundaries.
