There are some important restaurant states this year with minimum wage and tip credit elimination measures on the November ballot. Ohio is at the top of that list. We are joined by John Barker, CEO of the Ohio Restaurant & Hospitality Alliance as well as Tod Bowen, their head of External Affiars & Government Relations, to level set on their pending measure to both incease the minimum wage to $15/hr and eventually eliminate the tip credit.
We will also review the general state of play of those wage issues across the country as many legislative sessions are close to wrapping up.
We’ll talk about those issues and wrap it up with the legislative scorecard.
