Alliance for a Better Minnesota released an ad on Tuesday that targets GOP-endorsed candidate for governor Tom Emmer on statements he made suggesting tip-earners’ wages should be below minimum wage in Minnesota. Emmer backtracked a bit last week saying he would approve a tax cut on the first $20,000 of tips earned and would simply freeze the current minimum wage for servers.
Here’s the ad:

What should have been said was.
Great Britain has recently abolished their tip credit on the grounds that it is a law simply geared at stealing tips. If politicians want to give restaurants some kind of credit, it should NOT be derived from the tips customers are presenting their employees.
The tip credit is an archaic and unconstitutional law which should be repealed across this nation.
