The Ho-Chunk Nation of Wisconsin has raised its minimum wage to $10 an hour. The amount is $2.75 above the federal level. It will go into effect in July. “The cost is high but the return is much greater,” President Jon Greendeer said in a statement. “We can wait until the perpetual debate is resolved or we can just take action ourselves. We chose to make our move and I feel it’s the right one.” Get the Story:
