Restaurant Workers Beware! Trump Wants Your Tips!
Attention Restaurant Workers! Mad King Trump Wants To Give Restaurant Owners Your Tips!
Restaurant workers who rely on tips to survive could receive a massive pay cut. The Trump administration wants to take away your tips and put them in the pocket of the restaurant owner.
The Trump Administration is proposing rescinding an Obama-era rule that stated tips are the property of the servers. Trump’s Labor Department wants to change the rule to say the restaurant owner is the owner of the tips.
As a result, the administration’s proposal would allow restaurant owners to collect all the tips and do whatever they want with them.
Thus, restaurant owners could keep diners in the dark and pocket all the tips for themselves.
This “reverse Robin Hood” scheme would take money out of the pockets of low-wage workers and give it to business owners. It is just one more example of “trickle-down” economic policy masquerading as pro-worker reform.
