The working poor are making more per hour but taking home less pay. The University of Washington paper asserts the new wages boosted worker pay by 3 percent, but also resulted in a 9-percent reduction in hours and a $125 cut to the monthly paychecks.
The law also cost the city 5,000 jobs, the report said. http://www.foxnews.com/politics/2017/06/26/seattle-s-minimum-wage-hike-hurting-low-level-workers-study-says.html
I had to go through the same thing. Arizona raised the minimum wage to $10 an hour and my hours were slashed and I brought far less money than before the raise.
Just another liberal experiment that fails.
