Last week, President Biden marked his 100 th day in office. This Lightbulb illuminates some of the more important developments affecting wage and hour law taken during the first 100 days of the Biden administration. Fight for $15. A top Biden administration priority remains increasing the minimum wage to $15. On April 27, President Biden issued an executive order requiring federal contractors and subcontractors to pay a minimum hourly wage of $15 (effective January 22, 2022) for workers employed in the performance of federal contracts or subcontracts. Thereafter, the minimum wage will be increased based on changes in the Consumer Price Index (or additional legislation changing the minimum wage). The executive order also includes a provision to phase out the tip credit for tipped employees while performing work under federal contracts or subcontracts. This follows the failure to get the proposal included in President Biden’s $1.9 trillion coronavirus relief bill. The administration can be expected to continue fighting to raise the minimum wage for all workers.
