Jan 30, 2007 — WASHINGTON (Reuters) - A Democratic campaign promise to boost the federal minimum wage for the first time in a decade moved closer to completion on Tuesday when U.S. Senate Republicans lifted a roadblock against it.
Full Senate approval is now possible because Democrats agreed to Republican demands to include tax cuts for small businesses to help cover the cost of raising the minimum wage over two years to $7.25 per hour from $5.15 per hour.
On an 87-10 vote, the Democratic-led Senate agreed to ... provide about $8.3 billion in tax breaks.
