STATE HOUSE — A legislative committee on Tuesday afternoon endorsed a bill establishing a $15 an hour minimum wage for fast food and so-called big box store workers.
The 4-2 vote of the Labor and Workforce Development Committee came as fast food workers rallied in favor of higher wages, planning to march from Faneuil Hall to the State House.
NEW YORK (AP) — Few performers making their Broadway debuts get a street on Broadway renamed in their honor. Michael Flatley is an exception.
