OPB News - Oregonians on minimum wage can expect a larger paycheck starting this month.
The state's minimum wage increases this year by 20 cents an hour--from $7.05 to $7.25. By law, the wage is adjusted to keep up with the consumer price index and it will now be the second highest rate in the nation.
Oregon is one of three states around the nation that has linked its minimum wage to a consumer index, meaning it can rise each year, without needing state or congressional action.
