Once you perform a mic drop like saving the tip credit, the show is over.

From @crainsdetroit, re: @savemitips: "the out-of-state special interests that created the problem in the first place are coming back to try again. And this time they put forward Jane Fonda is an effort to gain attention and support. Yes, Jane Fonda, the actress and activist once known for home workout videos and her opposition to the Vietnam War has found a new passion at age 88 for Michigan’s restaurant workers who rely on tips for their income."

“I’m just glad that they’re keeping the tips, honestly,” said a server at Martin’s Coney Island. "The tips is where it’s at." This is possible because of YOU! Your efforts have saved the tip credit.

An agreement on the leave bill is necessary next because it is tied to the tip credit bill currently on its way to the governor's desk. We will keep you updated today. "The House passed Speaker Hall's compromise plan...The bill was passed 69-40 with heavy bipartisan support"
UpNorthLive News@upnorthlive

The Michigan House of Representatives passed Speaker Matt Hall's (R) compromise plan that addresses Michigan's minimum wage laws on Wednesday afternoon. upnorthlive.com/news/local/mic…

""Save My Tips, Save My Tips, Save My Tips!” echoed in the halls as supporters rallied food service workers and lobbied legislators from the restaurant and lodging industries." Months later, people are still discussing the impact that tipped workers had at the Capitol in Sept.

“Listening to the people who do the job and saving their income and jobs is not a partisan issue. It’s an economic issue,” said John Sellek from Save MI Tips after the legislative victory. Read the full My UP Now article here: myupnow.com/news/advocacy-…

Thank you, #Michigan Senate. Your votes made a difference! “They cared. They tried to do a compromise,” said Michele King, a server at the restaurant. “And I’m really glad that they did a compromise, because we were afraid we weren’t going to have a job in time.”

"The voices of working people from Marquette to Monroe and everywhere in between overturned the efforts of an out-of-state activist group powered by millions in dark money which sought to impose a system that no one here asked for or wanted" (Via Detroitonemillion.com)

Last night, our Democratic friends listened to tipped workers and supported us. Now, they are being threatened. When Massachusetts had the EXACT same proposal on the ballot in November, 2/3 of its voters said NO!

Thank you State Representatives @schuette_bill, John Roth, and @jaydeboyer1 for leading the tip credit legislation this year. Without your leadership on HB 4001, we wouldn’t have arrived at the bipartisan solution we have today.
