FILE - In this Oct. 8, 2013 file photo, Illinois Republican gubernatorial candidate Bruce Rauner speaks at a news conference in Chicago. The minimum wage debate could be top issue on 2014 campaign trail. Evidence of that came this week as Rauner, a venture capitalist, backtracked from past comments saying he’d advocate cutting the rate. He emerged last week as as the Republican candidate most open to raising the minimum wage, telling The Associated Press he’d be comfortable with up to $10 an hour if either the national rate is raised or Illinois reforms workers compensation.
