Voters in Washington, D.C., have approved a measure that will gradually increase the minimum wage that tipped workers receive.
Initiative 82 significantly raises the minimum wage for tipped workers. With its passage, employers will be required to pay $16.10 per hour to tipped employees by 2027 — on par with the minimum wage for non-tipped employees. With over 40% of the votes counted, the initiative leads with 75% approval.
Proponents of the measure argued that tipped workers don’t always actually earn enough in tips to make up the gap between base pay and minimum wage, and that, given the cost of living in the District, an increase in wages is only fair.
