Jackson Lewis: Alabama Governor Signs Law Voiding Birmingham Minimum Wage Ordinance | Practical Law
This Law Firm Publication by Jackson Lewis P.C. discusses Alabama Governor Robert Bentley's signing of a bill that prohibits individual municipalities in the state from enacting their own minimum wage laws. The bill, signed on February 26, 2016, eliminates the legal effect of an ordinance passed one day earlier by the Birmingham City Council that would have raised the minimum wage to $10.10 for all employers in the city.
