They didn’t ask the state to mandate it.
All this does is cause a loss of jobs.

You’re talking about the Davis-Bacon act, not the federal minimum wage law. That doesn’t negate the importance of setting a minimum wage (and ideally keeping it consistent with the rate of inflation/deflation to preserve the spending power of the minimum wage)
