Gavin Newsom on Jobs

S.F. Mayor; former Gov. cand.

 


Raise minimum wage to $20/hr. for fast food workers

AB1228: This bill would establish the Fast Food Council and prescribe the council's purposes, duties, and limitations and establish an hourly minimum wage for fast food restaurant employees.

Nation's Restaurant News summary Mar 28, 2024: California's controversial $20 minimum wage for quick-service restaurant workers employed by companies with 60 or more locations is set to go into effect after undergoing multiple revisions and pushback from the restaurant industry. Gavin Newsom introduced and passed AB 1228 which increases the minimum wage for fast-food workers from $16 to $20, instead of the originally proposed $22 an hour.

Legislative Outcome: Passed Assembly 53-17-10 on Sep/14/23; passed Senate 32-8-0 on Sep/14/23; Signed by Governor Gavin Newsom on Sep/28/23.

Californians are VIPs of GDP: 1 in 7 new jobs since 2010

Just consider this fact: 1 in 7 new jobs created by the U.S. economy since 2010 has been created right here in California. So when you hear the boasts, bleats, and tweets of Washington politicians tripping over themselves to take credit for the economy, remember the real VIPs of America's GDP--the millions of California workers, investors and entrepreneurs who are actually producing their own California Dreams.
