LinkLinks WAMU: Vote On Repeal Of D.C.’s Tipped Wage Ballot Initiative Set For Next Week By Editor On Sep 27, 2018 51 Share The D.C. Council will vote next Tuesday on a bill repealing Initiative 77, the ballot measure approved by D.C. voters in June that would gradually raise the minimum wage paid to tipped workers. Chairman Phil Mendelson notified members of the Council on Thursday morning of the planned vote. In the notice, Mendelson’s staff said the vote must happen the first week of October, because Initiative 77 is expected to take effect on Oct. 9, at which point the tipped wage would immediately increase to $4.50 an hour. In July, it increased to $3.89 from $3.33. DC CouncilInitiative 77LegislationMinimum WagePhil Mendelson 51 Share FacebookTwitterReddItWhatsAppEmailPrint
