Quick Glance: California: New Minimum Wage Impact on Fast Food Industry
  • Most fast food workers in California will earn at least $20 per hour starting Monday, providing more financial stability to the profession and potentially raising prices in the high-cost state.

  • The law was supported by the fast food franchise owners' trade association. However, many owners have expressed concerns about the law's impact on their businesses amid California's economic slowdown.

  • California has doubled its minimum wage to $16 per hour over the last decade, with data showing increased wages and sustained employment levels.

  • The law represents a negotiated compromise between the fast food industry and labor unions, applying to restaurants with limited table service and part of a national chain with at least 60 establishments.

Quick Glance: Arizona Republicans foil another effort to repeal 1864 abortion ban
  • Arizona House Republicans once again thwarted an attempt on Wednesday to repeal the state's nearly complete abortion ban from 1864, leaving Democrats without a vote on their repeal bill for the second consecutive week.

  • Despite facing pressure from influential conservatives, such as former President Trump and Senate hopeful Kari Lake, urging GOP leaders to lift the ban, the Republicans blocked the repeal.

  • State House Democrats made a procedural maneuver to attempt to suspend House rules and bring the repeal bill to the floor for discussion. However, this action was rejected by the GOP majority, with only one Republican, Representative Matt Gress, crossing party lines to support bringing up the repeal bill.

  • A similar endeavor to repeal the ban was obstructed by Republicans last week. Following persistent criticism of the law by Democrats both within and outside the state throughout the week, prominent figures like Trump and Lake recognized the political risks and advocated for a change in direction within the Legislature.

Quick Glance: Why Canlis remains closed on weekends this summer
  • This summer marks Kyle Johnson's 14th anniversary at Seattle's prestigious Canlis fine dining restaurant, with every weekend off for him and the entire staff.

  • On Sunday, the restaurant owners, Mark and Brian Canlis, announced via Instagram that the restaurant will only be open from Monday to Friday from Memorial Day to Labor Day to test an idea considered worthy of exploration by Mark Canlis.

  • The suggestion to open Canlis from Monday to Friday instead of the usual Tuesday to Saturday was originally proposed by Kyle Johnson, the Director of Hospitality. Summer Saturdays are lucrative for Canlis as a fine dining establishment.

  • Despite the risks involved in the decision to close on weekends, it is a step by the Canlis team to give back weekends to staff members and continue the tradition of constant reinvention.
