Arizona and Massachusetts voters are set to determine the future of minimum wage laws for tipped workers. Arizona’s Proposition 138 seeks to allow employers to pay tipped workers 25% less than the regular minimum wage, as long as their total earnings meet a minimum threshold. Meanwhile, Massachusetts aims to gradually increase tipped workers' base pay to match the state's standard minimum wage by 2029. The ongoing debate highlights the challenges and uncertainties faced by service industry workers reliant on tips, as both sides argue over potential implications for businesses and employee earnings.
