“If it feels good, do it!” is generally not sound economic policy.
But, then again, who ever thought Governors Jerry Brown and Andrew Cuomo were all about sound economic policy.

Because Hillary is all about making sure she gets on record as supporting this law.

And the law isn’t exactly what it is billed to be.
The law gradually raises the minimum wage to $15 in New York City by the end of 2018. On Long Island and in Westchester County, the wage would rise to $15 by the end of 2021.
The minimum wage would only rise to $12.50 in the rest of the state by 2020, with further increases tied to inflation and other economic indicators.
So leave it to Governor Jerry “Moonbeam” Brown to really throw down the gauntlet and increase California’s minimum wage to $15 statewide by 2022.
