Senate Republican candidate Steve Garvey said California’s “minimum wage is where it is and should be” regarding a recent law that established a $20 an hour minimum wage for fast-food workers.

“Minimum wage is where it is and should be,” Garvey, a former professional baseball player, said during a debate Monday evening. “If you look at what California has done to fast-food franchises right now, increasing the minimum wage to $20. Then what’s going to happen? That’s going to increase costs for hard-working Californians to go to a franchise.”
