Nevada minimum wage would hit $15 per hour if bill becomes law
CARSON CITY – A proposal was introduced Monday in the Nevada Legislature to nearly double the state’s minimum wage to $15 per hour.
Assembly Bill 175, sponsored by Assemblyman William McCurdy II, D-Las Vegas, is the more aggressive of two minimum wage bills introduced so far during the 2017 session.
Minimum wage is $7.25 per hour if an employer offers health insurance and $8.25 if no insurance is offered.
McCurdy’s measure would raise the minimum wage by $1.25 per hour, per year, until it reaches $15 by 2022 if an employer does not offer health insurance, or $14 per hour if insurance is offered.
