Question: SECTION 1. FINDINGS.

    Congress finds that--
            (1) the historical significance of the 52-mile Going-to-
        the-Sun Road in Glacier National Park, Montana, is recognized 
        by its--
                    (A) listing on the National Register of Historic 
                Places in 1983;
                    (B) designation as a National Historic Engineering 
                Landmark by the American Society of Civil Engineers in 
                1985; and
                    (C) designation as a National Historic Landmark in 
                1997;
            (2) in 1997, recommendations of the Federal Highway 
        Administration concerning, and an engineering study of, the 
        Road verified significant structural damage to the Road has 
        occurred since the Road opened in 1932;
            (3) infrastructure at most of the developed areas in the 
        Park is inadequate for cold-season (fall, winter, and spring) 
        operation, and maintenance backlog needs exist for normal 
        summer operation;
            (4) the Many Glacier Hotel and Lake McDonald Lodge are on 
        the National Register of Historic Places and are National 
        Historic Landmarks;
            (5) other accommodations operated by the concessionaire 
        that have possessory interest and are listed on the National 
        Register of Historic Places are the Rising Sun Motor Inn and 
        Swiftcurrent Motel;
            (6) the historic hotels in the Park, operated under 
        concession agreements with the National Park Service, are 
        essential for public use and enjoyment of the Park;
            (7) visitors to the Park deserve safe hotels in the Park 
        that meet basic needs and expectations;
            (8) the historic hotels in the Park have deteriorated 
        significantly and need substantial repair;
            (9) repairs of the hotels in the Park have been deferred 
        for so long that, absent any changes to the Federal law 
        governing concessionaires and the availability of historic tax 
        credits for up to 39.5 years, the remodeling costs for the 
        hotels exceed the capacity of the hotel concessionaire to 
        finance the repairs with hotel revenues;
            (10) the remodeling costs of Park hotels are so high that 
        the concessionaire will need to finance the cost of those 
        repairs by borrowing the remodeling expenses and repaying them 
        over time out of net hotel income, which by current law is 
        limited to 20-year concession agreements;
            (11) the season of operation for hotels is about 4 months 
        because the developed areas of the Park lack--
                    (A) water, sewer, and fire protection systems that 
                can operate in freezing conditions;
                    (B) building insulation; and
                    (C) heating systems;
            (12) because of many factors, including the high projected 
        costs of remodeling, the relatively short tourist season in the 
        Park, and the requirement that concession agreements may not 
        exceed 20 years, concessionaires are unable to carry out the 
        scope of remodeling that is needed for the hotels in the Park;
            (13) the National Park Service Concessions Management 
        Improvement Act of 1998 (16 U.S.C. 5951 et seq.) is based on 
        sound principles and is achieving its basic purposes, but there 
        appear to be selected instances in which the National Park 
        Service needs additional authority to conduct demonstration 
        projects; and
            (14) a demonstration project is needed to carry out repairs 
        of the historic hotels in the Park.

                services (including conference facilities) for groups 
                of visitors in the early spring and late fall months, 
                especially as those additional services may provide

                historic hotels in Glacier National Park; and
                    (B) is consistent with section 402 of the National

                            (i) adequate; and
                            (ii) available at a reasonable rate--
                                    (I) to be approved by the Secretary 
                                in accordance with section 406 of the

            ``(C) rounded to the nearest multiple of $0.05.
    ``(2) In calculating the annual percentage increase in the median 
hourly wage of all employees for purposes of paragraph (1)(B), the

which data are available with the median hourly wage determined for the 
preceding year.''.

Fair Labor Standards Act of 1938 (29 U.S.C. 203(m)(1)) is amended to

                    ``(B) for each succeeding 1-year period until the 
                hourly wage under this paragraph equals the wage in 
                effect under section 6(a)(1) for such period, an hourly 
                wage equal to the amount determined under this 
                paragraph for the preceding year, increased by the 
                lesser of--

Answer:
Pay Workers a Living Wage Act This bill amends the Fair Labor Standards Act of 1938 (FLSA) to increase the federal minimum wage for employees to: (1) $9.00 an hour on January 1, 2016, or, if later, on the first day of the third month after enactment of this Act; (2) $10.50 an hour after one year; (3) $12.00 an hour after two years; (4) $13.50 an hour after three years; (5) $15.00 an hour after four years; and (6) the amount the Department of Labor determines (based on increases in the median hourly wage of all employees) after five years, and annually thereafter. The federal minimum wage for tipped employees shall increase to $3.15 an hour for one year on January 1, 2016, or the first day of the third month after enactment of this Act, whichever is later. Subsequent annual adjustments of the wage increase, according to a specified formula, shall ensure that it remains equal to the wage in effect under FLSA for other employees. Employers must notify their employees of the right to retain any received tips. The separate minimum wage requirements for tipped employees shall end, effective one day after the hourly wage established for them under this Act takes effect.  Any employer may pay any newly hired employee under age 20, during the first 90 consecutive days after initial employment, a wage at a rate (currently $4.25 per hour) that is not less than the standard minimum rate, reduced by $3.00 per hour.  The Secretary must publish the amount of any upwardly adjusted required wage in the Federal Register and on the Department of Labor's website 60 days before it takes effect.
