Census household money income includes wages before taxes. Local minimum-wage authority concerns earnings policy; a proposed repeal of preemption does not itself set a higher wage or establish increased household income. This connection does not establish causation. Actions after the measurement period cannot explain the earlier observed value.

SECTION 1. That Section 44-1502, Idaho Code, be, and the same is hereby amended to read as follows: 44-1502. MINIMUM WAGES. (1) Except as hereinafter otherwise provided, no employer shall pay to any of his employees any wages computed at a rate of less than seven dollars and twenty-five cents ($7.25) per hour for employment. The amount of the minimum wage shall conform to, and track with, the federal minimum wage. (2) In determining the wage of a tipped employee, the amount of direct wages paid by an employer to the employee shall be deemed to be increased on account of tips actually received by the employee; provided however, the direct wages paid to the employee by the employer shall not be in an amount less than three dollars and thirty-five cents ($3.35) an hour. If the tips actually received by the employee combined with the direct wages paid by the employer do not at least equal the minimum wage, the employer must make up the difference. In the event a dispute arises between the employee and the employer with respect to the amount of tips actually received by the employee, it shall be the employer's burden to demonstrate the amount of tips actually received by the employee. Any portion of tips paid to an employee that is shared with other employees under a tip pooling or similar arrangement shall not be deemed, for the purpose of this section, to be tips actually received by the employee. (3) In lieu of the rate prescribed by subsection (1) of this section, an employer may pay an employee who has not attained twenty (20) years of age a wage which is not less than four dollars and twenty-five cents ($4.25) an hour during the first ninety (90) consecutive calendar days after such employee is initially employed. No employer may take any action to displace employees (including partial displacements such as reduction in hours, wages or employment benefits) for purposes of hiring individuals at the wage authorized in this subsection.
