(Brooklyn, NY - July 22, 2015) Senator Jesse Hamilton said, "Today marks an important milestone for living wage advocates. More than 180,000 workers across New York State will benefit from adoption of the Wage Board's recommendation to set a $15 minimum wage for fast-food chain workers. We need to continue the fight for a living wage for all workers. We must keep up the pressure to ensure that every worker in New York gets a living wage."
