I live in a red state with an $11/hr minimum wage. We got that by amending the constitution, thereby overriding the legislature which was opposed to the increase. Unfortunately $11/hr is not even close to enough to live on here so apparently it's time to raise it via another constitutional amendment.
Sigh

Gotta double it to catch up, and pin it to inflation at the same time so it stops falling behind.
