Even though the minimum wage bills (HB1/SB1) were vetoed, did you know that Virginia's minimum wage will increase on January 1st 2025 and annually thereafter?

That's because of a smart provision that was part of the 2020 bill (HB 395) from Del. Delegate Jeion Ward:

It was an honor to be part of Senator Tim Kaine’s re-election launch in Richmond, where his career in public service all began. Virginians are lucky to have him represent us. Looking forward to six more years of his leadership in the U.S. Senate. Let’s go!
