Proposal for Minimum Wage Increase and Support for Small-Scale Breweries
Governor Albert Bryan Jr. has introduced two significant pieces of legislation to the 36th Legislature.
The proposed "Act to Increase the Minimum Wage" aims to raise the territory-wide minimum wage from $10.50 to $15 an hour over three years, with incremental increases to $13 in 2026, $14 in 2027, and $15 in 2028.
"This phased minimum wage increase balances compassion with common sense,"
said Governor Bryan, emphasizing that the bill is built on fairness, sustainability, and economic inclusion to benefit all workers.
