this argument is already immediately moot for a majority of states which either don’t allow tipped wages or already tie tipped wages to minimum wage so that you can’t be paid less than your states minimum wage

This is a federal law. In no state can you make less than $7.25/hr at a tipped job. If tipped wage plus tips doesn’t make that, the employer must make up the difference.

At least that’s the law. I’m sure some shitty employers don’t follow it. We should get rid of the whole “tipped wage” thing entirely and pay everyone a living wage.
