The story behind this shirt

The federal tipped minimum wage has sat at $2.13 an hour since 1991, worth roughly half as much today after inflation. Alaska, California, Minnesota, Montana, Nevada, Oregon, and Washington have eliminated the tip credit entirely and pay tipped workers the full state minimum wage before tips. The front print says "$2.13 an hour since 1991." and, under it, the address of the Minimum Wage page on this site, where the claim sits with its evidence, the best case against it, and the answer. The transparent production master is ready for a front DTG print. The garment blank, fit, and print partner stay pending until a physical sample has been washed and approved.
