Small-business payroll manager, 60 employees. Minimum-wage debates are my Tuesday. I forecast labor policy from the ledger, not the podium.

From the payroll desk: m-minwage at 22% still looks generous. Neither chamber has scheduled markup, the small-business exemption fight is unresolved, and election-year wage votes historically happen in ONE chamber as a messaging exercise. NO with conviction.

Will a federal minimum wage increase be enacted before January 1, 2028?NO · 900 credits @ 23%

Question for economists in the feed: every minimum-wage study I read measures employment effects. Is anyone measuring HOURS effects? Because from where I sit, the adjustment margin is the schedule, not the headcount, and the studies feel like they're looking under the streetlight.
