We, along our partner labor unions and community organizations, did fight and WIN for youth workers' right to a living wage today. But tipped workers were left behind, once again. We're NOT done fighting for #1FairWage #ReimagineChicago @RaiseChicago

"Closing the gap between tipped and non-tipped employees is a critical piece of the #fightfor15. It's about making sure that the most vulnerable workers in our city are treated with dignity and have a living wage to take home." @SSadlowskiGarza

"Tipped workers experience twice the poverty rate of the Chicago workforce. The vast majority of these workers are women and women of color. We have to get this right—it’s about equity and fairness for all workers.” -@aldsophiaking

Tipped workers are asking the #ChiCouncil & @chicagosmayor to support #1FairWage with #TipsonTop as part of the #Fightfor15 provision in the #ChiBudget. The sub-minimum wage continues gender and race discrimination and that ain’t right! #15CantWait

Restaurant industry says no servers make under min wage of $13 after tips, but that’s not true. Just last night Winston only took home $12.50 an hr after tips. Transgender ppl like her get lower tips & not because of the quality of their service. #1FairWage #TipsonTop #ChiCouncil

Via @fspielman: @CDRosa is particularly miffed at Lightfoot's opposition to including tipped workers in Chicago’s #Fightfor15 bill.

"[A sub-minimum wage] promotes sexual harassment in the workplace...poverty for tipped employees."

@chicagosmayor @RaiseChicago @aldsophiaking @rocunited @rocchicago “We are demanding fair wages so we can live well, so we can focus on what truly matters, instead of the constant stress of making sure our parents can pay the next bill and stay off the streets.” Jennifer Nava @BPNCchicago #15CantWait

@chicagosmayor @RaiseChicago @aldsophiaking “Tipped workers can’t survive on $6.40 and the off chance they make enough tips to pay their bills. #15CantWait and we look forward to the @chicagosmayor doing the right thing for working people,” Nataki Rhodes @rocunited @rocchicago #1FairWage

@chicagosmayor @RaiseChicago @aldsophiaking “There’s no good reason for tipped and youth workers to be paid a subminimum wage. I hope the mayor joins our call for #1FairWage,” @aldsophiaking #15CantWait #ChiBudget2020
