State Policy Update: Kansas Joins More Than a Dozen States in Phasing Out Subminimum Wage

On February 8, Kansas joined the ranks of 15 other states that have already abolished or are in the process of phasing out subminimum wages for individuals with disabilities.

RespectAbility is pleased and encouraged that a bipartisan, cross-section of states is moving to ensure that people with disabilities are earning real pay for real work. We look forward to working to continue this momentum in all 50 states.
