UAW's Fain warns Michigan lawmakers not to change minimum wage, paid sick leave laws

Shawn Fain's letter to lawmakers outlined the UAW's wish list and the union's opposition to changes to minimum wage and paid sick leave laws.
UAW President Shawn Fain has urged Michigan lawmakers to increase the state's minimum wage to $15 per hour and expand paid sick leave during the current lame-duck session. Fain emphasized the urgency of these changes, arguing that they are essential for supporting working families and addressing economic disparities. He highlighted the disparity between the current minimum wage of $10.10 and the proposed $15, noting that many workers are struggling to make ends meet. Additionally, Fain called for the elimination of exemptions that allow some employers to pay less than the minimum wage and for the expansion of paid sick time benefits to ensure workers can take necessary time off without financial hardship. His comments come as Michigan's legislature, with a Democratic majority, considers several labor-related bills before the session ends.
