No
minimum wage for now
 A
judge denied the Governor's legal request to
immediately impose federal minimum wage on state
workers - meaning that members will receive a
full pay check on Aug. 1. The legal battle
will continue next month.
Sacramento County Superior Court Judge Patrick
Marlette said the technical issues raised by state
Controller John Chiang merited a full hearing,
most likely in August. Chiang has argued that the
state's antiquated payroll system made it
impossible for him to legally implement the
governor's executive order for months.
