Mayor Garcetti will drive business out of Los Angeles, especially manufacturing.
The City of Los Angeles will inevitably lose many of their manufacturing jobs. I urge Mayor Garcetti to stay in line with California's Minimum Wage as it is equal or lower to neighboring cities. We need to be careful as other States offer a better business environment. We have manufacturers that constantly feel the pressure of China's low labor costs, they will eventually give in and move or give up completely. The negative effects of sudden considerable jumps in the minimum wage could outweigh the positives. Politicians need to consult with Economists before making decisions like this.
