Raises the federal hourly minimum wage to $15 and requires automatic annual adjustments for inflation. The Department of Labor Secretary will compute a new wage each September using the Consumer Price Index and round the result to the nearest $0.05. The law (and its amendments) becomes effective on the first January 1 that begins after the date of enactment.
