[Vote No On 82 @VoteNo82]

This November, voters in D.C. will consider #Initiative82. If passed, it will eliminate the tip credit for restaurant and bar workers, severely reducing take-home pay for servers and bartenders across our city.

Learn why D.C.'s restaurant employees are voting #NOon82 ⬇️

[DC Nightlife Council (DCNC) @DCNightlifeDCNC]

* * * NEW TODAY * * *
The Washington Post
again urges DC voters to
Vote 'NO' on Initiative 82.

"Eliminating the tipped minimum wage was a bad idea in 2018, and is an even worse idea now."

[DC Nightlife Council (DCNC) @DCNightlifeDCNC]

EDITORIAL: 'The tip credit guarantees that servers and bartenders receive the minimum wage but enables tipped employees to earn well above that amount. #Initiative82 would upend this system, harming servers and bartenders across the District.'

@BarredinDC @borderstan ...DC's Most Meaningless Election:
*77%* of Advisory Neighborhood Commission (ANC) Races Have *NO CANDIDATE* OR *ONLY ONE CANDIDATE* on the Ballot.

• 18% No Candidate
• 59% Uncontested Candidate
• 23% Competing Candidates

Less than 1-in-4 Offers Voters a Choice.

'After months of legal challenges, DC residents will vote on controversial ballot #Initiative82.'

Will DC Voters Listen to...
Workers or Outsider Groups?

'Workers say eliminating the tip-credit system will reduce their take-home pay.'

Music venues keep DC culture alive. I'm happy to see support for my #PerformingArts Promotion #TaxRebate Clarification bill in today’s Committee on Business & Economic Dev. hearing. My bill also helps artists by making it easier for live performance venues to get tax rebates.

It’s been a long path to reopening, but @18thstlounge is back in action in Shaw. Privileged to be brought back on as a resident at this storied club.

I’ll be kicking off Thursday programming this evening; giving you disco, funk, house + international sounds in the Red Room.
