Did you hear? #California got a major win! 👏🏾 👏🏾

Fast food workers are now required to be paid $20 an hour.

More than a third of Americans eat fast food on any given day, making fast food workers crucial to the flow of our society. This raise is long overdue.

The restaurant industry includes 7 of the 10 lowest-paying jobs. 📊 People who work in the industry are 2x as likely to need food stamps as the rest of the US workforce, and 3x as likely to live in poverty.

Raising the wage would support over a MILLION workers in #Michigan .

Happy International Workers Day! Solidarity, unity, and courage to the workers who make this world. La lucha sigue!

This is honestly just gross. Out of 114 occupations, only ONE had wages favoring women. ONE? 👎🏿

It's 2024. We need #PayEquity now.

Here are some updates on our '25 by 250' project launched in 2022. Since its inception, we've achieved several victories in DC & Chi-town!

If we achieve our goal of winning in these states, we will have successfully raised wages for over 3.5 million workers!

ICYMI: In a study conducted by @OneFairWage in 2022, 50% of all women and 58% of women of color surveyed said they are not making the full minimum wage after tips.

📊 7 in 10 women working in the #RestaurantIndustry report being sexually harassed. This is a direct result of the subminimum wage which forces women to endure inappropriate behavior out of fear of losing tips and not being able to afford their bills.

It's time to close the tip credit loophole ‼️ $7.25 isn't a living wage either and service workers aren't even getting that!

Do you know our mission? It's to raise the wage with tips on top. Our next stop? Michicgan!

'We are not on the menu' 🗣️ That's the message #Connecticut advocates were sending during a recent self-defense training for female restaurant workers.

❌ 70% of women in the service industry are sexually harassed at work. That's unacceptable.

Let's debunk the myth that raising the minimum wage kills jobs! 🚫

📊 Research actually suggests increases in pay lead to increased productivity, lower turnover, and better overall performance.

I mean someone's gotta address it! 🤭

Your job takes up your time and your time is worth money. End of story.

The idea that some jobs don't require skill is just an idea propped up by capitalists to support the exploitation of workers who do all the work to keep their companies going!
