The D.C. Council hadn’t overturned a citizen’s initiative in nearly two decades. Then residents voted decisively to raise the pay of tipped workers, and council members decided to teach their constituents who is really in charge. washingtonpost.com/local/dc-polit…

@MrsTipCredit @JakeRosenfeld1 @NelpNews Actually, tipped workers VOTED-- actually voted-- at the ballot box. Then the Council heard from a group of owners and small group of well-paid bartenders and reversed the will of the voters. Shame. #Initiative77

Tipped Worker Karim Soumah had this to say, “I’m glad that @councilofdc hopefully laid the issue around the tipped credit system to rest – it works here in DC. Now our industry can get back to focusing on what we pride ourselves on, providing great service and fare...” #Repeal77

@DanielFordDC @BrianneKNadeau She represents all in her ward, and if you condone any elected official telling their constituents whether or not they agree with them that their direct messages mean no more than dead weight than you have lost sight of the bigger picture.

CM @BrianneKNadeau we are disappointed in your vote not to support the workers and #SmallBusiness owners of your Ward. But we are even more dismayed by your flippant comment that you would use the copies of thousands of messages we delivered to you as a doorstop. #Initiative77

@M4RJNow Well we guess the million dollars raised by ROC United was just Monopoly Money.

The bill repealing #Initiative77 passes its second and final vote. Mary Cheh, Elissa Silverman, Charles Allen, Robert White, and Brianne Nadeau were recorded as "no" votes.

.@tweetelissa reiterates that she thought her compromise bill was a better fit. "I want to say to all of those that voted for 77 that I remain optimistic that our ultimate goal of having an equitable and just city and making sure families and small businesses can thrive."

Final #Initiative77 repeal vote coming in a few minutes @councilofdc. They're pausing for the room to be cleared, likely to let stakeholders in to listen to the conclusion of this months-long battle.

.@marycheh, though your speech was nice, you made no attempt to reach out to #SmallBusiness owners and workers to truly hear their concerns.

No @tweetelissa, you didn’t listen to tipped workers or #SmallBusiness owners. We asked you to #Repeal77, and you chose an electoral gimmick that still did harm to the hospitality industry and the workers that are employed in it.
