The new DMV laws going into effect July 1

The new DMV laws going into effect July 1

A bunch of new laws take effect Monday in D.C., Maryland, and Virginia.

Why it matters: Many will impact your daily life.

Zoom in: Here are some of the most notable:

D.C.

⬆️ Minimum wage increase

• The minimum wage is now $17.50, up 50 cents. The tipped minimum wage rises from $8 to $10 per hour as a result of Initiative 82, which gradually increases the base pay for tipped workers (hospitality and otherwise) to be in line with the city's minimum wage by 2027.

💲 Pay transparency

• No more salary surprises — businesses must disclose pay rates and salary ranges on job listings, and employers may not screen candidates on their wage history.

Virginia

🚨 Crime

🍸 Booze

❌ Legacy admissions

🏀 NIL deals

• Universities can compensate their student-athletes through name, image, and likeness (NIL) deals, and it'll be illegal for the NCAA to punish schools for it.

💒 Marriage protections

Maryland

🎶 Ticket sales

• A new anti-scalping law more tightly regulates concert and other live entertainment ticket sales from third-party platforms. Among other things, there's a ban on junk fees and "speculative tickets."

🥃 Booze

• Permitted and approved liquor stores and merchants (not restaurants) can deliver alcohol directly to customers, including through third-party services like DoorDash, in certain counties.

❌ Legacy admissions

🚬 No more vaping

• Pocket your Juul — vaping is banned in certain indoor areas, workplaces, and mass transit.

💸 Increased taxes and fines

• As the result of a $340 million budget deal to raise funds for state programs, Marylanders will shell out more in a variety of ways. Vehicle registrations have a $23 surcharge, fines for speeding in work zones are up, and sales tax on cigarettes increase from $1.25 to $5 (e-cigs and vapes are now taxed 20% instead of 12%).
