More than 100,000 people got a raise on Sunday.

The minimum wage rose from $12.50 per hour to $13.25 per hour, part of a step-ladder of increases that ends in 2020 with a $15 minimum wage. Tipped workers also saw an increase from $3.33 per hour to $3.89 per hour—not the$15 rate that voters just passed.

About 111,000 workers earn minimum wage (or less) in the District of Columbia, according to 2016 data from the Bureau of Labor Statistics.

The changes that went into effect on July 1 are part of 2016 legislation that was passed after an extensive lobbying effort as part of the so-called “Fight for 15” campaign. The regular minimum wage will rise to $14 in 2019, before hitting $15 in 2020, and being tied to inflation thereafter. Under that law, the tipped minimum wage will rise to $5 in 2020.

But that may change. Washingtonians voted by a 10 percent margin in the June primary to raise the tipped minimum wage to $15 (it would also go up in stages until it hits that rate in 2026).

That legislation must first pass a standard 30-day Congressional waiting period. After that, the D.C. Council could choose to overturn or amend the law. The Restaurant Association of Metropolitan Washington has pledged to continue their fight against the initiative at the Wilson Building.
