President Bush on May 25 signed into law H.R. 2206. While containing
funding for the war in Iraq, the legislation also included a three-step
boost in the federal minimum wage, now $5.15 an hour. Under the measure,
the federal minimum wage will rise as follows:
July 24, 2007: $5.85 an hour
July 24, 2008: $6.55 an hour
July 24, 2009: $7.25 an hour

While the California minimum wage is higher than even the final hike
of the federal minimum wage, California employers will need to post the
new rates nonetheless. According to Eduardo Huerta, U. S. Department of
Lobar, Employment Service Administration, the new Fair Labor Standards
Act Minimum Wage poster is scheduled to become available for public dissemination
after July 24. Huerta believes other changes will be reflected in the
new poster as well.
