California voters reject measure that would have raised minimum wage to nation-high $18 per hour.

Opponents say it would have increased costs, led to higher taxes and pushed businesses to cut jobs.

Current minimum wage rates are $ 16 per hour for most workers and $ 20 in fast-food sector.

Hawaii passed a law in 2022 to gradually increase the statewide minimum wage.
