Kamala Harris has previously expressed strong support for raising the federal minimum wage to $15 an hour, aligning with her broader platform focused on economic equity and workers' rights. The current federal minimum wage has been $7.25 since 2009, and many Democrats, including Harris, argue that it is far too low for workers to meet basic living costs. Doubling the minimum wage to $15 would represent a significant shift, aimed at lifting millions of workers out of poverty, improving purchasing power, and addressing income inequality.
Harris and others who advocate for this raise believe it would help reduce disparities in pay, particularly benefiting low-wage workers, many of whom are women and people of color. Opponents, however, caution that such an increase could hurt small businesses and lead to job losses if employers struggle with the higher wage costs.
If Harris were to push for this as a priority, it would likely require significant political negotiation in Congress, where past efforts to raise the federal minimum wage have stalled.
