ARE
YOU A FRANCHISE OWNER? STAND WITH NFIB/NY AND TELL GOVERNOR CUOMO HOW
INCREASING THE MINIMUM WAGE WILL IMPACT YOUR BUSINESS!
NFIB/NY
is currently fighting
for your business against this drastic move by Governor Cuomo. On May 7th
the Governor announced that he was going to convene yet another wage board to
examine the impact of an increase on the minimum wage for fast food
workers.
The Governor however has failed to recognize that many “fast food” restaurants
are actually independent small businesses. The advocates for increasing
the minimum wage are pushing for $15.00 per hour for employees of fast food
restaurants!
We need you to join us in telling
the Governor NO! to a wage hike and what this increase could mean for YOUR business and YOUR
employees!
Please reach out to your NFIB/NY team and help
us tell your story. Also, please consider testifying in person or submitting your story to the wage board. All relevant information is
below.
Rest
assured your NFIB/NY team is fighting for you and your business and can use
your help!
