All Service Workers Deserve At Least $15 Plus Tips On Top
No one should be excluded from being paid a living wage! Service workers, restaurant workers, and all other tipped workers included ($15 + tips)! We are professionals who deserve fair wages!
Why is this important?
We all deserve the basic right of being able to survive with our wage, of being able to afford to feed our families, pay for the roof over our heads, and be able to eat, like every other working professional. Because we are professionals, and we should be compensated fairly. If every other industry is paid at least the minimum wage, then we must not stand for even one penny less! Any time the minimum wage is discussed servers are completely left out of the conversation, and we won’t stand for it anymore. No one can survive on the subminimum wage of $2.13/hr in many states, or $4/hr in DC, or even $10/hr in NY!
