Voting largely along party lines, the committee also voted Thursday to raise the minimum wage for an additional 10 million workers brought under the federal minimum wage law in 1966 to $1.80 on Jan. 1 and to $2 the following year.

The minimum wage for both groups now is $1.60 an hour. The committee also tacked on an amendment that would ban the hiring of aliens who have illegally entered the United Slates, such as those found Oct. 5 in the Los Angeles food processing plant of Romana Ba-nuelos, who has been nominated by Nixon to become treasurer of the United The amendment, offered by Rep.

The bill also would raise the minimum wage for half a million agricultural workers from the present $1.30 an hour to $1.50 next Jan. 1 and to $1.70 two years later.
