The Baltimore City Council Labor Committee will host a public hearing on minimum wage Wednesday.
A new proposal would continue to gradually raise the wage to $15 an hour by 2022 for larger businesses and 2026 for smaller businesses.
City Council President Jack Young said he would support a slower roll-out of the $15 an hour minimum wage increase if it happens.

As it stands now, the entire state of Maryland will have a minimum wage of $10.10 by 2018.
Some council members still have reservations about the increase, arguing that it would be too expensive for businesses, especially ones that could get a better deal in Baltimore County.
The hearing is scheduled to take place at 5 p.m. at City Hall.
