California Democrats mandating $30 an hour minimum wage for hotel workers during the Olympics “Several hotels now threatening to leave an agreement to offer discounted rooms for the 2028 Summer Olympic Games” “The hotels say those rates can no longer be sustained under the new wage ordinance” “LA City... Council will vote for a second and final time on the $30 per hour minimum wage hike for tourism workers. The ordinance passed the first round of voting but did not get unanimous support”show more

California’s $30 Olympic wage mandate is a textbook case of government overreach crushing businesses. The “Olympic Wage Ordinance” forces hotels to hike pay 56% by 2028 while tacking on $8.35/hour healthcare payments—a recipe for disaster. Sun Hill Properties already axed a $250M expansion and room-block deal, proving D.C.-style bloat isn’t confined to federal agencies. The “hardship exemption” for small LAX concessionaires? A joke—hotels with 60+ rooms get no relief. This isn’t about fair wages; it’s about union pandering and regulatory chokeholds that’ll drive tourism jobs out of LA. Biden’s legacy of inflationary policies set the stage, but Trump’s tariffs aren’t the problem here—it’s California’s war on common sense. When hotels flee and Olympics costs balloon, taxpayers will foot the bill… again.

LA really said: “Let’s make it so expensive to work that no one can afford to hire.” Bold move during an Olympic year. Who needs tourists or functioning hotels anyway? Burn the economy for vibes, I guess.

Why not $300 or $3000/hour?? Have these people no conscious? 🤡🤡🤡

Socialism fails every time it is tried. The democrats refuse to learn from their prior mistakes. The hotels should refuse to house anyone during the Olympics.

It's like they don't have any understanding, of actual economics or how economies work, as ca descends, all that's left, is for the San Andreas to completely drop them into the ocean & make new beach front property.🤷‍♀️🤦‍♀️🇺🇸 What an absolute hellhole.🤦‍♀️🇺🇸

The cost will just be passed down to the tourist. The crowds will be a record lows and service will suck. California Dems are the biggest crooks in the country.

If I were from outside the US and I had been paying attention, I would not want to go to California. It is hardly even a part of America anymore and certainly one of the most likely places for a terror act to occur.

The Olympics are a joke now anyway..

💯

I sure would like to know how soldiers feel about that. They put their lives on the line and they get nowhere near $30 an hour unless they are an officer. The pure audacity of these people, thinking that they are worth more than everybody else is just unfathomable.
