About 37,000 people nationwide and 3,481 Minnesotans with disabilities are paid subminimum wages.
Nearly 90-year-old system has allowed employers to pay workers cents on the dollar.
It remains to be seen whether the incoming Trump administration will follow through on the change.
Minnesota has invested millions of dollars to help employers transition to more inclusive workplaces.
The state has made “significant strides” to prepare for the change.
The Labor Department is taking comments on the proposed rule through Jan. 17 .
The rule could be revised based on feedback and it needs to make it through bureaucratic steps.
