  1. "delayed because of budget concerns".

    The state chose to delay it so they could come up with the money, but Fast Food joints had no choice.

  3. This won't affect actual healthcare workers who for the most part already make more than this. It will apply to the support staff... housekeeping, dietary, etc. Whether or not its a good thing is debatable.
