You might start out with a bit of small talk about the weather or traffic, or what your boss did over the weekend.  Once the conversation feels more comfortable, you could bring up a more controversial topic, like the increase in minimum wage.  A good way to get this conversation started is by mentioning that you’ve been reading an article about the topic, and asking if your boss has also been following it.
