Former New York State Assembly Speaker, Sheldon Silver, will learn his fate in court today following a $5-million corruption case from November of 2015.
The New York State Assembly plans to pass a bill Tuesday (March 5) that will see minimum wage increase from $7.25 to $9 an hour. The passing of the bill will put pressure on Gov. Andrew Cuomo, who has already proposed a minimum wage increase, to support the bill.
