CHICAGO — Voters in six states - Arizona, Colorado, Missouri, Montana, Nevada and Ohio - will vote on ballot initiatives on Tuesday that would raise the minimum wage from $1 to $1.70 per hour above their current levels.
If the increases are approved, these states will join eight others that recently raised their minimums - including Pennsylvania, which voted this summer to boost the state's minimum wage by $2 to $7.15 beginning next year.
