"Since 2014, 12 states have passed minimum wage increases through ballot measures," Martinez Hickey told CNBC. Meanwhile, voters in Arizona will decide on a ballot measure that would lower the minimum wage for tipped workers. Here's what's at stake for workers who make the minimum wage, and the employers who pay them, in next month's election. 1 would raise the minimum wage to $13 in 2025, and to $14 in 2026.
