May 1: Concerned About Likely County Min. Wage Hike? This Town Hall’s for You
| Thursday, Apr 23, 2015

biz_scv-chamber-sealTown Hall Meeting:

Los Angeles County Board of Supervisors  Proposed Minimum Wage Increase For Unincorporated Los Angeles County

 

Last month, the LA County Board of Supervisors unanimously approved a study to review the fiscal and economic impacts of raising the minimum wage in the unincorporated areas of LA County. The Board is set to vote on increasing the minimum wage on May 12, 2015.

(This Action would NOT mandate the businesses within Santa Clarita city limits increase their minimum wage – only the areas outside of city limits.)

Attend this Town Hall Meeting and learn what this could mean to you and our local businesses.

Hear from this panel of experts:

 

Kathryn Barger, Chief Deputy, Supervisor Michael D. Antonovich

Tracy Rafter, CEO, LA BizFed

Holly Schroeder – President/CEO, SCVEDC

 

The Santa Clarita Valley Chamber of Commerce encourages you to attend this FREE Town Hall meeting. We will be collecting letters that will be submitted to the Board of Supervisors on May 12, 2015.

Friday May 1, 2015

7:30 am – 9:00 am

Residence Inn

25320 The Old Road

Santa Clarita, CA 91381

    You should be concerned, if this goes through it will not create ANY additional purchasing power for anyone. It will create higher prices, more taxes and increased burden on business. Minimum wage is not intended to support families, it is intended to give unskilled, teen, first job holders, a starting wage.

    You should attend the meeting and get more informed.
