Bill > HB5671

This bill amends West Virginia law to automatically increase the state's minimum wage each year based on the rise in the consumer price index, which is a measure of the average change over time in the prices paid by urban consumers for a market basket of consumer goods and services. Specifically, the bill adds a new provision stating that the minimum wage will be adjusted upward annually on September 1st to reflect any increase in the consumer price index calculated by the U.S. Department of Labor for the previous year, ensuring that the minimum wage keeps pace with inflation.
