Fast food workers in California helped win the passage of a bill to raise their minimum wage to $20 and create a statewide Fast Food Council.
Fast food restaurants are not just temporary employment for teenagers in need of summer jobs. While that’s been the case for quite some time, this persistent stereotype trivializes the very real struggles that the industry’s 3.6 million workers face every day. As of 2021, the typical fast food worker is a 26-year-old woman, and fast food is a massive global industry that is worth billions of dollars .
” The council itself held its first meeting in March, two weeks before the minimum wage hike went into effect. The Fast Food Council’s two worker representatives, Angelica Hernandez and Anneisha Williams, have decades of fast food experience between them. They’re both excited to use their newfound power to educate industry executives about the hardships workers endure, and to lift up their coworkers around the state.
