    Your “minimum wage” link states multiple times that it is only for federal employees, not for the general population. There are still states where you can get less than 10$/h.

      The President cannot unilaterally increase the minimum wage, which is spelled out in the Fair Labor Standards Act. Only Congress can amend that law. Biden’s Executive Order went as far as he’s legally allowed to go.

      Well yeah he’s a Federal Executive office holder. Is anyone confused about that? Anyone not understand the difference between state and federal government?
