Since 1922 www.thesantaclara.com @thesantaclara thesantaclara.tumblr.com One free copy Minimum Engh Touts Tech in Teaching Wage to Increase? Obama proposes raise in labor wages across the country

Matthew Rupel T!" S#$%# C&#'#

Working students might be seeing dollar signs in their eyes. Even though California’s minimum wage is already above the federal rate of $7.25 an hour, it’s a dollar short of President Barack Obama’s call to raise the minimum wage to $9 an hour and boost it annually to keep pace with inflation. Ten states make similar cost- of-living adjustments. In the county of San Francisco, workers earn at least $10.55 an hour, the highest minimum in the country. In all, 19 states and the District of Co- lumbia have minimum wages set above the federal rate of $7.25, a disparity Obama highlighted in his State of the Union address as he seeks to help the nation’s lowest paid workers. The minimum wage in California currently stands at $8 an hour. Obama’s proposal is renewing the age-old debate between advocates who claim boost- ing the minimum wage pumps more money into the economy and helps to create new jobs, and business groups that complain it would unfairly burden employers and curb demand for new workers. And it faces certain hurdles in Congress, as top Republicans including House Speaker John Boehner wasted little time dismissing the proposal. More than 15 million workers earn the na- tional minimum wage, making about $15,080 ANDREW COX — THE SANTA CLARA President Michael Engh, S.J., addressed a packed Mission Church for his annual State of the University speech. Engh touched on Santa Clara’s future in modern a year. That’s just below the federal poverty technology and a diverse student bod,y including students still vying for citizenship.
