WASHINGTON:  The U.S. House of Representatives passed a bill that would raise the federal minimum wage to $15 by 2025.


The Raise the Wage Act passed 231-199, mostly along party lines. All Alabama Republicans – Reps. Robert Aderholt, Bradley Byrne, Gary Palmer, Martha Roby, Mike Rogers and Mo Brooks - opposed the measure; Democrat Terri Sewell voted in favor of the bill.


The bill would increased minimum wage to $8.40 per hour this year then gradually over the next six years until it reached the $15 mark. After 2025, the bill would tie to median wages to account for inflation. It would also do away with the separate minimum wage standard for tipped employees.
