Earlier this month, the Massachusetts Senate passed a bill to raise the minimum wage from $8 to $11 over the next three years — and with it, to raise the minimum pay for tipped employees (like waiters) from $2.63 to $5.50. The bill still needs to work its way through the House; meanwhile, the Massachusetts Restaurant Association is figuring out a strategy to fight what it sees as an unreasonable increase. Boston Business Journal speaks with MRA CEO Bob Luz about it. [BBJ]
