I totally understand how this doesn’t benefit those making above minimum wage and actually is decreasing their annual earnings by eliminating Sunday and Holiday pay. That’s part of the reason why they called the bill the “Great Bargain,” it’s a balancing act and they’re hoping that the wage increases will trickle up and be reflected across the board over time.
