Summary

On February 6, 2019, Yannet Lathrop testified before the Vermont Senate, Committee on Economic Development, Housing and General Affairs in support of a $15 minimum wage and against a youth wage in Vermont. Workers throughout Vermont need to earn at least $15 per hour today, just to afford the basics; by 2024, they will need much more.
