    ALBANY – Some New York State lawmakers are calling on the Governor to hold off on rising the state’s minimum wage in an effort to help businesses already struggling due to COVID-19.

    Senate Republicans, including local Senator George Borrello, say rising the wage would have a negative impact on small- and medium-sized businesses who are already having trouble keeping their doors open.

    The group is asking Governor Cuomo to pause the increase, which is slated to take effect on December 31.

    The wage is slated to rise to $12.50 from $11.80 everywhere outside of New York City, Long Island and Westchester County.

    That 70-cent an hour raise will mean an extra $28 a week in the paycheck of a person working a full-time job paying minimum wage.

      With havin so much written content do you ever run into any problems of plagorism or copyright infringement?
      My blog has a lot of unique content I’ve either authored myself or outsourced but it seems a lot of it is popping it up all over the web without my authorization. Do you know any techniques to help prevent content
      from being ripped off? I’d certainly appreciate it. I saw similar here:
