BPR: Efforts to stop an “economically disastrous” minimum wage requirement were cleared to advance, as growth was already being hindered.
Having learned no lessons from the devastating impact that followed raising the minimum wage for fast food and healthcare industry workers, Los Angeles mandated a hike of up to $30 per hour for hotel workers ahead of the 2028 Olympics. Last week, efforts to put a stop to the hospitality crippling requirement cleared a hurdle to potentially leave the matter up to voters.
According to a report from the Los Angeles Daily News, Interim City Clerk Petty Santos announced Wednesday that the referendum to overturn the wage hike had received enough signatures to be reviewed by the Los Angeles County Registrar-Recorder/County Clerk. more
Another example of Defecrats buying votes with other peoples money. The repeal will probably fail because these people cannot realize they are cutting their own throats.
All that they’ve proven is that the real minimum wage is $0/hr.
I’m so sad that Tsunami didn’t make it all the was to Nevada and Arizona.
ANOTHER summer Olympics in LA?
Like the world is dying to flock to America’s biggest megalopolis of drug-addled homeless.
…this is also an insult to older employees who had to WORK their way to 30/hr.
I really don’t care anymore what California does so long as it doesn’t use any of MY federal tax dollars in the process. In other words: NO FEDERAL BAILOUTS for Socialist/Communist cities or states that use Other Peoples Money. I don’t support any of that shit intended to weaken and bankrupt the nation, I shouldn’t have to pay for it!
“Enough signatures to be reviewed by the registrar of voters?” Any bets he rejects it?

Well you can thank NorCal rep Kevin Kiley for slamming the brakes of your tax dollars being sent here. I just read that in 2023 700K residents left L.A. county. That would explain why L.A. was so anxious to keep all those illegals. Gotta keep those census numbers up. I applaud this move. Pass the pop corn.
Bad Brad – Yeah, but Greasy Gavin is still on track to sink the whole state with Socialism that counted on a federal bailout. I don’t single out California either, I say the same needs to apply to every Blue state and city doing the same things. democRATz are trying to destroy the United States one Blue city and state at a time and look how far it has gone. The only way to fight this is to let them strangle themselves with their own policies by not giving them so much as a federal nickel!
Hey Brad, have you been following the Joey Swoll dust-up? What a dumbass. The one (of many) things Trump got right, never ever ever apologize to the woke mob, it won’t pacify them, and it makes you look like a pussy.
“NO FEDERAL BAILOUTS for Socialist/Communist cities or states that use Other Peoples Money.”
Good rule but it should be applied to ALL states, even the red ones. The individual states should fend for themselves; if they can’t pay their bills, then new fiscally responsible leadership is in order.
Rich Taylor – Well I doubt that the Red states would do this as they tend to be more responsible with tax dollars, but you are right, it should be written as a global law.
I wonder what Large Mouth Bass Ass will try to do if all the hotels in LA and the suburb Cities would send a written notice they are completely shutting down a week before the 2026 World Cup? Maybe call in the National Guard to force them to stay open?
Global as in all-encompassing, not planetary.
Speaking of LA, and by extension California, if by some miracle a Republican wins the governor’s race, the first thing he should do is cancel the 2028 Olympics scheduled for LA, what a shit show that is going to be.
This boondoggle will rival the CAHSR for wasted dollars with no discernible ROI.

I’ll go check Joey Swoll current video’s out. I imagine it had something to do with some idiot filming themselves in the gym. I don’t know how that guy finds so many jerks in a gym. I’ve pretty much lived in the gym since I was 18 and I’ve never once witnessed any aggression. Gym peeps are about the friendliest around.
On another note I typed the other day that the wife and I attended a meet and greet for Sheriff Chad Bianco who’s running for Gov. I’m thinking he’s our guy. Not all of the questions I had were addressed. But for one thing he has every law enforcement agency in California behind him.
Here’s a list of where he stands on some of our issues.

Swoll, a good dude and a net positive for gym etiquette, made the fatal mistake of apologizing for a past video he posted honoring Hulk Hogan. Long story short, his intentions were honorable, but he totally caved and groveled before the woke mob and made things a hundred times worse.
This is reminiscent of John Senna, who a few years back apologized to China for calling Taiwan a country.
Maculinity is defined, not by the size of your biceps but by the size of your balls.
Oh now I gotta go check it out. Hogan just triggers the shit out of the left. I’ve read some shit by them that has the veins poking out of my neck. I’d say some of masculinity is also defined by the size of your heart and Hogan had a big one. He did a lot for kids and he helped out a bunch of broken down old wrestlers. All pretty much unreported.
I think it was Joe Rogan that said the biggest problem the left has with Hulk Hogan is that at 71 years old he could kick any of their asses. He’s probably right.
Remember the fight for fifteen? I guess it’s the fight for fifty, or, fitty more like. Folks, wherever you go and whatever you do, the bottom is the bottom and that is that. It won’t change. Retards think it will, political opportunists use mini-wage increases for personal advancement… on the backs of the retards. As I get ever older the repetitive nature of the STUPIDITY and CUPIDITY constantly amaze. Oh well.
If the hotel owners raise prices to cover the higher costs rooms are going to get so expensive that only illegal aliens will be able to afford them.
Thirty lousy chump-change dollars per hour? Where’s the dignity? Where’s the compassion? You can’t live a life of luxury and unlimited spending on a lousy $60,000 a year! I demand an actual living wage, at least 125,000 a year, or I won’t feel properly respected or motivated.
