Orlando attorney John Morgan says he is supporting a campaign for a new constitutional amendment to raise the minimum wage in Florida to $15 per hour. The Fair Wage Amendment would increase the minimum wage to $10 per hour in 2021, then increases the hourly pay by $1 per hour each year until it reaches $15 per hour in 2026. After 2026, Florida’s minimum wage would increase with the rate of inflation. Florida’s current minimum wage is $8.46 per hour. In order to appear on the 2020 ballot, 766,200 petitions from registered Florida voters must be collected.
