No Tax On Tips: bottom 20% of all tipped workers would receive an annual average tax cut of just $74.
Raise the Wage Act: would benefit nearly 23M workers with an average annual boost in wages of $3,200 ($70 billion gain in wages.)
You be the judge.

@DistillSocial@SenPolehanki Yup. Polehanki not voted against giving Michigan’s most vulnerable workers a raise perhaps we’d every day folks would have more time for joy.
@umichvoter Also worth noting: he voted YES on a bill to gut wage hikes the Michigan Supreme Court had already ordered. When workers win in court, he makes sure they still lose.
@ComPitchford@umichvoter@JeremyAllenMoss Also worth noting: he voted YES on a bill to gut wage hikes the Michigan Supreme Court had ordered. When workers win in court, Moss makes sure they still lose.
@JeremyAllenMoss Just here to remind everyone that state senator Moss voted against raising wages a few months ago. Not the kind of Democrat we can support and you shouldn’t either.
@SenPolehanki@JeremyAllenMoss Ah yes, the anti–fair wage caucus just got a little cozier. Nothing like one Democrat who voted against raising wages endorsing another who did the same. Oakland County deserves champions, not corporate apologists trying to upgrade their titles. Pass.
🗣️ Michigan lawmakers are claiming a win for workers—but the reality is, this bill falls short.
Don’t let lawmakers spin this as a victory while keeping tipped workers in poverty.

If Democrats want to win, they need to stop kissing up to corporate donors and start actually helping working people. Pass fair wages. Pass universal healthcare. Let voters feel the difference in their wallets. Otherwise, enjoy losing to fascists. 💁���♀️
Why deal and not leave the law as the people of Michigan voted for and the MI Supreme Court upheld?
This is because greedy corporations and the Restaurant Association have spent millions lobbying in Michigan to get people to think paying fair wages to tipped workers is wrong.
If your business plan revolves around others paying your employees maybe you don’t know how to run a business fairly? End the legacy of slavery and end subminimum wages.
🚨 Today, Michigan legislators vote on a bill that would strip thousands of dollars & paid family leave from our lowest-paid workers.

Dems don’t cut pay raises—we fight for them. We’re the party of workers, NOT puppets for the restaurant lobby.
VOTE NO
@onefairwage Workers in the service industry are now presenting a letter calling on politicians to raise wages, not cut them.
“We need to see you fighting for our needs.”
“We need Democrats to deliver for working people.”
Down the street from the DNC forum here in Detroit, organizers with @onefairwage are delivering the message candidates for leadership need to hear.
