Conneticut passed a bill to raise the minimum wage, incrimently into 2017, where it will reach it's value of 10.10.
This makes Conneticut the first state to reach the minimum wage Obama has been pushing for a national standard, it also is the highest minimum wage of any state. The largest current wage is 9.32 in Washington.
This is a push and invitation towards all other states to contribute towards the idea of a higher minimum wage, Obama is confident that Congress will inevitablely make 10.10 a national minimum.
