Everett could vote on a new $20.24 minimum wage
EVERETT — Everett workers may be due for a raise.
At least, those making minimum wage.
A proposed Everett ballot measure could raise the city’s minimum wage for workers at large businesses to $20.24 — a 24% increase over the $16.28 statewide rate.
Seattle’s minimum wage is $19.97 an hour. In unincorporated King County, it’s set to rise to $20.29 next year.
