From MarylandReporter.com: The same poll last week that found 60% of Maryland voters support making the minimum wage $15 — with 43% strongly supporting the idea — also found that support for the move passed by the House of Delegates Friday dropped sharply when voters were told it would raise prices and cost jobs. The Restaurant Association of Maryland added those questions to the poll by Gonzales Research & Media Services. “The abstract concept of a legislated mandatory $15 minimum wage for all workers in Maryland has, at first blush, resonance for many voters in the state,” Gonzales wrote. “However, when presented with concrete possible outcomes of a mandated minimum wage, voter attitudes shift markedly.” Read the entire article here: https://marylandreporter.com/2019/03/06/poll-finds-support-for-15-minimum-declines-if-voters-told-of-higher-prices-lost-jobs/ Comments are closed.
