Indiana Senate Democrats will push for several ideas in the 2018 legislative session they’ve tried to advance before.

The new baseline salary will go into effect on January 1.

The minimum wage rate at Indiana University Health previously matched the national and state minimum of $7.25 per hour.

South Bend Mayor Pete Buttigieg wants to raise the minimum wage for city employees to $10.10 per hour by 2018. The city currently adheres to the state and federal minimum wages of $7.25 per hour.

Despite recent news that Indiana’s unemployment rate is at a 7-year low, activists say too many newly created jobs in the state are low paying.
