Minimum wage earners in Nebraska are seeing higher wages to start the new year. As of yesterday, the state's minimum wage rose by a one-dollar-and-50-cents to 13-dollars-and-50-cents per hour. Nebraska voters approved an initiative in 2022 that increases the state's minimum wage by a dollar and a half each year until it reaches 15-dollars per hour in 2026.
