Independent Business Association of Wisconsin: Opposes Minimum Wage Increase to $6.50
“With Wisconsin’s high tax rate status and poor entrepreneurial climate an increase to $6.50 an hour would further undermine the business climate and hurt small businesses in this state,” stated Michael Fredrich, President of Manitowoc Custom Molding.
“Furthermore, raising the wage to $6.50 would make Wisconsin’s minimum wage the highest in the Midwest and establish us as an island of uncompetitiveness in the national and world marketplace,” Fredrick added.
