Even though partisan infighting made Congress virtually ineffective in 2024, a spate of new laws were still approved and will go into effect next year.

Nineteen states, including New York and California, will ring in the year with an increase in the minimum wage.

The increase in pay will mean most for workers in Massachusetts and Washington state, where the minimum wage will go up to $11 per hour.

California will raise its wage to $10.50 for businesses with 26 or more employees. New York state is taking a regional approach, with the wage rising to $11 in New York City, to $10.50 for small businesses in the city, $10 in its suburbs and $9.70 elsewhere.

Voters in Arizona, Maine, Colorado and Washington approved increases in this year's election. Seven other states, Alaska, Florida, Missouri, Montana, New Jersey, Ohio and South Dakota, are automatically raising the wage based on indexing. The other states seeing increases are Arkansas, Connecticut, Hawaii, Michigan and Vermont.

盡管黨派之爭使美國國會2024年沒有取得多少成績，但還是有一系列法律獲得批準(zhǔn)，并將于2024年生效。

包括紐約和加州在內(nèi)的19個州將從元旦開始提高最低工資標(biāo)準(zhǔn)。

馬薩諸塞州和華盛頓州工人收益最大，這兩個州的最低工資將上調(diào)至每小時11美元。

加州雇傭26個雇員以上的企業(yè)最低工資將提高到每小時10.5美元。紐約州各地工資標(biāo)準(zhǔn)不同，在紐約市為每小時11美元，城市小企業(yè)10.5美元，郊區(qū)和其他地方為9.7美元。

亞利桑那、緬因、科羅拉多和華盛頓州的選民在今年大選中投票通過提高最低工資。阿拉斯加、佛羅里達(dá)、密蘇里、蒙大拿、新澤西、俄亥俄和南達(dá)科他這七個州是根據(jù)生活指數(shù)自動調(diào)高最低工資的。其他提高最低工資的州還有阿肯色、康涅狄格、夏威夷、密西根和佛蒙特。
