Opponents: small businesses can't absorb costs like big corporations can. No automation budget. No economies of scale. And SQ832 has no protections built in for hours or headcount.

Adam Maxey, State Chamber of Oklahoma, called it a very difficult position.

Opponents say: the 3 states that went furthest on minimum wage are now the 3 most expensive for groceries.

"That's not Oklahoma's cost of living."

Amber England of Raise the Wage Oklahoma:

"This isn't about someone who's lazy or doesn't want a better job. This is actually families."

She described her mom working two jobs and night school after a divorce — with no formal training.

Opponents counter: the 3 states with the highest minimum wages are also the 3 highest grocery price states. The debate is real. Read the full recap 👇
