DC council delays tipped minimum wage hike until October, pausing Initiative 82 to reassess impacts.
The Washington D.C. Council has voted to delay the increase of the tipped minimum wage, originally set for July, until October.
This decision pauses Initiative 82, which aims to phase out the tipped wage system and raise the minimum wage for service workers to $17.95 by 2027.
Mayor Muriel Bowser supports the pause, citing concerns over the impact on small businesses and the restaurant industry.
Critics argue the delay betrays workers and voters, while supporters believe it provides necessary time to assess economic impacts.
