Let see if I have this straight. Unions were backers for increasing minimum wage for workers, but now they want to be exempt for these minimum wage requirements. Obviously something seems a little out of wack here. Just one excerpt from the article

Without leeway to pay a subminimum wage, he said, those companies could be outbid by nonunion shops that chose to ignore the new pay standards.
