TALLAHASSEE, Fla. – On Tuesday, Florida’s minimum wage was hiked even further after state voters approved the change nearly five years ago.
The hike comes after Amendment 2 was narrowly passed by voters in 2020, kicking off a series of minimum wage hikes into the foreseeable future.
More specifically, the amendment provides for a boost to the minimum wage annually via the following schedule: Year Minimum Wage Sept. 30, 2022 $11 Sept. 30, 2023 $12 Sept. 30, 2024 $13 Sept. 30, 2025 $14 Sept. 30, 2026 $15
As a result, the minimum wage was increased to $14 starting on Tuesday, Sept. 30 . This also means that next year is the last scheduled minimum wage hike.
From then on, the minimum wage is set to be adjusted annually for inflation, as it originally had been since 2004.
