2 FUCKING years. We're already behind. I HATE when they think this is so bitchen when it ain't. Granted, it is forward, but too far away. Even if Obama was able to make it $10.10, that is still too low, and it won't start for another 2 to 3 years. EVERY year it should go up by a dollar. So start at $10.10. By 2019 minimum wage would be $15.10. No cost of living wage hike till 2024 of a dollar more an hour for 5 years. It's still too low for what wages should be, but it's at least a "living" wage.
