How the Subminimum Wage Affects Disabled and Tipped Workers - Beyond the Scenes I The Daily Show

The current federal minimum wage for tipped workers is $2.13 and has not increased since 2009. Meanwhile, disabled employees can legally be paid less than their non-disabled counterparts, earning as little as 25 cents per hour. Host Roy Wood Jr. sits down with Daily Show researcher Stephanie O. and the President of One Fair Wage, Saru Jayaraman to discuss how the subminimum wage is legal, how tipping is a legacy of slavery, why restaurant workers aren’t running back to their jobs after the pandemic, and how the “other” NRA, the National Restaurant Association is the biggest obstacle to raising the minimum wage. #DailyShow #Comedy #Podcast Head to One Fair Wage to learn more about their work, join organized protests and continue the fight for fair wages: https://onefairwage.site/ Watch the original segment: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wAtjGY9vQRA&t Follow Beyond the Scenes from The Daily Show: Watch full podcast episodes: dailyshow.com/beyond Listen wherever you get your podcasts: http://podcasts.iheartradio.com/5VF7TkWF?sid=soc Subscribe to The Daily Show: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCwWh...
