D.C. Servers Beg City to "Save Our Tips"
Might things be better if elected officials did nothing?...
On the American Spectator website Andrew Wilford reported on this:
"It’s become a common experience for me as a denizen of The Swamp to see these signs whenever I go to a restaurant or bar in the nation’s capital. Outside groups are trying to subject D.C. servers to a minimum wage that would actually cause wages to go down, as well as harming employment, by ending the tipped wage system.
D.C. servers aren’t having it. Ever since a New York-based group managed to insert Initiative 77 onto the ballot, restaurant workers have had their noses to the grindstone trying to stop it from passing. The Save Our Tips campaign has made a difference—signs and t-shirts advertising the campaign have become ubiquitous in D.C. establishments. "
