“I just want to make sure that workers have a safety net of a fair base wage before tips,” said Ryan O’Leary, a former D.C. Currently it’s $5.35 an hour in the city, but restaurants or other establishments will pay up to the city’s standard $16.10 rate if those workers don’t make at least that in tips plus their base wage. In D.C., like most of the nation, the tipped minimum wage is lower than the standard. It looks similar to Initiative 77 that appeared on primary ballots in 2018, which was passed by voters but later repealed by D.C.’s Council. If passed, Initiative 82 would incrementally increase the base minimum wage for tipped workers every year until it is equal with the non-tipped employee minimum wage on Jul. voters will get to decide if the city will raise the minimum wage for tipped workers such as servers, bartenders and salon workers at the ballot box on Tuesday.
