Committee reports
Reproduced from the House Calendar in the committee’s own words.
Majority — INEXPEDIENT TO LEGISLATE
This bill seeks to establish a state-level minimum wage that steps up over the next couple of years. Currently, New Hampshire follows the federal minimum of $7.25 per hour, but this bill proposes a gradual “step-up” schedule starting at $12.00 on September 1, 2026, and increasing annually until it reaches $17.00 by January 1, 2029. The bill includes a “greater of” provision, ensuring workers receive whichever is higher between the state and federal rates. The committee agreed it’s important that all Granite Staters earn a good living. However it was also felt that this attempt to raise the minimum wage was the wrong path and it was strictly for optics and would serve no economical or beneficial purpose. Vote 11-9.
Minority — OUGHT TO PASS WITH AMENDMENT
The minimum wage in New Hampshire has been $7.25 since 2009. The bill as amended raises the NH minimum wage to $12 per hour in 2026, $14 per hour in 2027, $15.50 in 2028 and $17 per hour in 2029. Rising costs of housing, food, and healthcare have made life more difficult for increasing numbers of Granite Staters. Raising the minimum wage is one tried and true tool we have to put more money into the pockets of New Hampshire’s working people and ease their financial struggles. Every other New England state has raised their minimum wage without losing jobs or causing harm to their economy. Over the years raising wages for the lowest earning workers has been used to infuse cash into the economy and stimulate economic growth. Workers who perform essential jobs in retail, food service, and healthcare deserve a living wage and a life with dignity.
