The Department of Labor and Industries has announced that Washington’s minimum wage will not change in 2016 — it will remain at $9.47. Washington’s minimum wage has been indexed to inflation since 1998, but the Consumer Price Index decreased this year. (And the minimum wage can only stay steady or go up.)

Washington’s minimum wage has consistently been the nation’s highest, but it won’t be next year. As L&I notes, the minimum wages in California and Massachusetts will be $10 in 2016. (Unlike Washington and California, Massachusetts has a tip credit: In 2016, the minimum cash wage that must be paid to tipped service employees will be $3.35.)

Here’s our most recent report on the minimum wage.
