Friend,
BREAKING NEWS: The New York Times has [ [link removed] ]reported that the National
Restaurant Association (AKA the ‘other NRA’) requires tipped workers to
pay $15 for a required class and then uses that money to lobby to keep
their wages low.
In other words, the NRA is literally forcing underpaid restaurant workers
to fund their own exploitation.
As soon as I learned about this, I signed a pledge to reject National
Restaurant Association PAC money - and I’m calling on my colleagues in
Congress to do the same.
[ [link removed] ]Tell your representative: Sign the pledge to reject NRA PAC money.
It’s because of the National Restaurant Association’s massive lobbying
that restaurant workers earn far below a living wage. The federal tipped
minimum wage has been $2.13 an hour for over 30 years.
In 2022, I stood with the SEIU and restaurant workers to help pass a
first-in-the-nation bill giving California’s fast food workers new
bargaining power, and we increased funding for the National Labor
Relations Board (NLRB) by $25M to take on union busters. Now it’s time for
us to take action against the NRA’s exploitative lobbying and empower
restaurant workers nationwide.
[ [link removed] ]Sign the petition: Urge members of Congress to sign the pledge to
reject NRA PAC money.
In solidarity,
Ro
