Kansas Tipped Minimum Wage Laws for 2016, 2017. Kansas' normal state minimum wage rate is $7.25 per hour. Kansas labor law allows tipped employees to be paid a lower cash wage than the standard Kansas minimum wage by their employers, as up to $5.12 in tips earned per hour can be deducted from their wage as a Tip Credit.
Only one Republican, Sen. Rick Bertrand of Sioux City, voted yes. Iowa's minimum wage is currently $7.25 per hour. The bill would increase Iowa's minimum wage to $8 an hour on July 1, 2015, and to $8.75 an hour on July 1, 2016. Sen. Tony Bisignano, D-Des Moines, the bill's floor manager, said the minimum-wage hike would put more money in the pockets of 181,000 Iowans.
