Too many Maryland workers work full-time but don’t earn enough to make ends meet.

During the 2019 session of the Maryland General Assembly, the Fight for $15 Maryland Coalition and advocates raised the needs of working families and the legislature passed a bill to raise the state’s minimum wage to $15 by 2025. 

Now Governor Wes Moore is making increasing the minimum wage to $15 by October, 2023 and indexing it to the cost of living a top priority of his first legislative session.

A $15 minimum wage means a better Maryland for all of us. Higher wages will help thousands of families, create new customers and profits for local businesses, and strengthen our communities.

Thank you for your support for Maryland workers!
