Los Angeles wants to have mandotory wage hikes for certain construction workers.

🚧 L.A. Takes Bold Step on Construction Worker Pay!

The Los Angeles City Council has voted unanimously to explore a Residential Construction Minimum Wage — potentially raising pay from $18/hour to $32.50/hour, plus a $7.65 health care credit.

This move could reshape L.A.’s construction landscape, aiming to:

  • Combat wage theft and worker exploitation
  • Attract and retain skilled labor amid a growing housing crisis
  • Balance fair pay with the cost of building much-needed housing

City staff will now study the economic impacts and gather input from builders, unions, and housing advocates.

Is this the right balance between affordability and fairness?
