Minimum Wage | Volunteers In Medicine - Teva | Go Biz Meetings

Yesterday, Small  Business California received a call from Senator Leno’s office asking our thoughts on SB 935. This bill would increase the minimum wage to $11 in 2015, $12 in 2016 and $13 in 2017. It would also have an annual increase for inflation.

In a bill passed last year, the minimum wage was increased from $8 to $9 July 1st, 2014 and again to $10 in Jan. 2016. This does not have an increase for inflation. What are your thoughts?
 


I am very proud to be the Vice Chair of Volunteers in Medicine. We provide health services to the working uninsured using volunteer physicians nurses, dentist and lay volunteers. We have 96 clinic in 29 states. There are three clinics in California located in SF (which I co-founded), El Cajon and Coachella Valley.

We just received a substantial grant from Teva Pharmaceuticals and have become their partner in North America. Our goal is to increase the number of clinics in the US. Please see information about the Teva conference in Las Vegas last weekend. Included is a list of Clinic around the country

 


Below my signature is the newly released list of upcoming workshops on GO-Biz’s California Competes Tax Credit. We would appreciate your help in getting the word out!
