Doesn't explain why wages have grown even in States without the  mandated increase.

The bigger driving force is the high supply of jobs and lower pool of employees. ......workers now have a choice to leave a job for a higher paying one down the street. Employers are competing to keep their workforce.

The rethugs are not pushing for minimum wage increases.

No they are not, however the fact that the economy is good, jobs are plentiful and hard to fill is causing wages to rise naturally rather than being forced which is how capitalism is supposed to work.

Only 580,000 people country wide work for min wage. Raising the min wage dosnt give results like that. But you already knew that.

Bottom 25% of wage earners are getting a huge pay increases over the year.  Wage growth tops 4.5% for the bottom for the bottom 25% while wage growth for the wealthy pales in comparison! https://www.cbsnews.com/news/low-wage-workers-are-getting-bigger-raises-than-bosses/

We have a 7.25 minimum wage in my right to work state and fast food jobs aren’t even remotely close to that minimum wage.  
 

Trump has just caused such great wage expansions since he has been president that nobody really has to work for the federal minimum wage anymore
