Texas adopts the federal minimum wage rate by reference, thus any changes affecting the federal minimum wage automatically becomes the Texas minimum wage for all intended purposes. Based on federal legislation, the federal minimum wage will increase in three stages:
1. Effective July 24, 2007, the federal minimum wage was increased to $5.85 an hour,
2. Effective July 24, 2008, the federal minimum wage will increase to $6.55 an hour; and
3. Effective July 24, 2009, the federal minimum wage will increase to $7.25 an hour.

You pronounced: "in the event that they shop elevating the minimum salary, human beings will end searching for larger education" that's between the main ridiculous issues i've got ever heard. particularly once you're speaking some minimum salary of $5.80 5. Now, in the event that they raised it to $15 a hour, then you definately've have been given a small component. unquestionably, i think of the minimum salary could be raised, and that i think of it is going to be raised plenty greater beneficial than it is being raised. via how, i'm no longer a 'whiner'. I even have a school degree and that i earn *properly above* minimum salary.

It's $5.85, and Texas doesn't have it's own.
