Alma Adams: “The bill was budget neutral, and it passed with overwhelming and historic bipartisan support.”

In my district, thousands of residents are struggling to make ends meet while the Trump administration puts the interests of billionaires above those of ordinary Americans.

The Trump administration's attempt to gut protections for tipped workers have only worsened these issues by allowing employers to steal almost 6 billion dollars of worker's hard-earned tips for themselves each year.

It is abundantly clear that there are two agendas present today. The republican's agenda will weaken worker protections and let low road employers off the hook for breaking the law.

Tipped workers are unfortunately paid less per hour than non-tipped workers, and they have less access to benefits.
