Congress hasn't raised the federal minimum wage since 2009, but 30 states have raised their own.

Looking forward to my family trip to Barcelona/Costa Brava in July. And now, just got an invitation to present at UPF in Barcelona in May 2027! I am looking forward to getting to re-familiarize myself with the city (it's been a long time since I was there!)
Sigh. I meant turnaround.
