Episode Description
The Michigan Supreme Court issued a ruling that would result in the state's minimum wage increasing to $12 an hour by February 2025 — as well as allowing most workers to accrue earned sick leave. On this episode of "Created Equal," host Stephen Henderson talks to Danielle Atkinson, an advocate whose work focuses on promoting economic fairness in Michigan, and Brian Calley, the head of the Michigan Small business association, which has said the new rules could cost them money — and cost Michiganders jobs.
