The minimum wage increased in 22 states on Monday, including Ohio, Axios' Emily Peck reports.
By the numbers: The federal minimum wage of $7.25 is in effect in 20 states, including three of our neighbors — Indiana, Pennsylvania and Kentucky.
- Ohio's $10.45 for non-tipped employees is middle of the pack.
- It's up from $10.10 last year, through an annual raise that's tied to inflation.
