Oregon Minimum Wage Boosts This Week | Portland News
Oregon’s minimum wage is rising by 50 cents an hour starting Wednesday, adding nearly $600 a year for full-time workers — though the boost varies by region, from $16.80 in Portland to $14.55 in rural eastern Oregon. Tied to inflation since 2016, this year’s hike reflects March-to-March data, but inflation has since climbed further — potentially warranting a larger raise. As costs keep rising, Oregon’s wage adjustments remain a balancing act for workers and the economy.
