Support the Raise Maryland campaign to gradually raise Maryland's state minimum wage from $7.25 an hour to $9.75 by 2013. The current Maryland minimum wage means only $15,000 a year for a full-time child care worker, health aide, security guard or other minimum wage worker, which is not enough to live on.
