Prince George's County Minimum Wage Indexing Campaign
In Prince George's County, Maryland, economic disparities have disproportionately affected Black and Brown communities. Although the county has seen economic growth, many workers still struggle to afford basic necessities due to stagnant wages. The Prince George's County Minimum Wage Indexing Campaign seeks to change this by ensuring that the minimum wage is adjusted with inflation, so all workers receive fair compensation that reflects the true cost of living.
What is Minimum Wage Indexing?
Minimum wage indexing automatically adjusts wages based on inflation, helping workers maintain their purchasing power as the cost of living rises.
Benefits of Minimum Wage Indexing:
- Economic Stability: Wages keep pace with inflation, providing financial security.
- Empowerment: Workers can afford basic needs like housing, healthcare, and education.
- Racial Equity: Helps close the racial wealth gap by raising wages for Black and Latino workers.
- Community Growth: Encourages local spending and supports small businesses.
