The restaurant lobby is outpacing Proponent witness slips 2-1 to get this bill passed. Restaurants want to continue to exploit their employees by paying them less than the state's minimum wage. We can't let that happen.
This bill, HB 4263, would end minimum wage home rule, effectively preventing the ability of Chicago (or any state municipality) to end tipped minimum wages on its own.
Now, the sponsors of a state bill that would target Chicago's One Fair Wage ordinance are looking to make a move sometime today or tomorrow in the Assembly's Labor and Commerce Committee.
Comrades, Chicago Mayor Brandon Johnson vetoed today a Chicago ordinance that would've halted the city's efforts to end tipped minimum wages and bring all employees under the same minimum wage.

We want to get as many witness slips filed as possible before the hearing, so please share this post and encourage your friends, family, and communities to show their support for the Human Rights Advocacy Protection Act!
The best way to show your support in this critical moment is to file a witness slip in favor of HB2723. The process takes less than two minutes if you follow the steps laid out by the Illinois Coalition for Human Rights^
The Human Rights Advocacy Protection Act (HB2723) is receiving a hearing in the IL House Committee for International Relations, Tourism and Trade on February 19th! This bill would remove unjust penalties for businesses that choose to boycott Israel in the state of Illinois.

WSIL DSA CONDEMNS THE ACTIONS OF THE OLIGARCHY IN VENEZUELA The US actions in Venezuela are a clear move by US Capitalist interests to seize oil and power in Venezuela. Their framing of this as a police action in a drug war is as absurd and illegitimate as the hunt for Weapons of Mass Destruction in Iraq and Afghanistan. The Venezuelan people have the right to self determination without the interference of foreign capitalist powers seeking nothing more than profit at the expense of US and Venezuelan blood. We demand an end to all military action in the Global South. We call on our elected representatives to bring forth articles of impeachment against Donald J Trump. We call on our communities to resist the actions of our rogue state in whatever method they see fit and to offer aid to the Venezuelan people as they seek their own way forward.

War is ramping up against Venezuela, Venezuelan airspace has been closed by the US military. Another war for oil is on the horizon. Let our senators know where we stand on illegal wars! Sign this letter, share it far and wide with friends, family, and on social media.
It only takes a few moments of your time to help stop AI Slop-centers!
Take a couple minutes to tell Naperville City Council exactly what you think of the data center they're trying to build
This is just a reminder that the 2 party system is a lie and you should be seeking out DSA candidates or similar pro worker candidates if you want a better country. Be wary of anybody who seems to have too much funding and access.

Love ya
