After a nearly 20-year separation, the SEIU and the AFL-CIO have kissed and made and now are back on the same team, joining forces just before a potentially union-hostile administration takes office. We’ll discuss the volatile history of the two organizations, why they reunited, and what it could mean for the industry. And this week, the U.S. Surgeon General called for expanded warning labels on alcohol, alerting consumers to the possible carcinogenic effects of drinking. Should the industry be worried either now or in the future? We’ll discuss. And McDonald’s got in line with other major American companies and walked back many of their DEI initiatives and hiring goals. We take a look at why this might be an increasingly complicated conversation for the industry going forward. We’ll talk about those issues and wrap it up with the legislative scorecard.

47:59The portable benefits issue is back in the news as DoorDash strikes another agreement - this time with the state of Georgia - to pilot a portable benefits program for its drivers. There is growing consensus within liberal and conservative circles that portable benefits regumes are here to stay and a plausible solution for millions of gig economy workers without traditional benefits. We’ll discuss where the issue is going and whether the restaurant industry will meaningfully engage. Starbucks and their public bathroom policy is back in the news as they reverse their policy implemented by Howard Schultz in response to the PR debacle in a Philadelphia restaurant in 2018. Is Starbucks really protecting their employees or bending to the political winds? We would argue that they’re doing both. We’ll talk about those issues and wrap it up with the legislative scorecard.…

Is this a bargaining ploy as both slides sit down at the negotiating table this week or is it for real? We’ll discuss. And we are joined by Maggie Gentile, a partner at Food Directions and a consultant to the National Restaurant Association to discuss the impact that the Make America Healthy Again (MAHA) agenda being led by Robert Kennedy, Jr. will have on the industry. Maggie’s going to tell us what the food policy landscape will look like in 2025 and what operators should be paying attention to.

46:03It was a tough week for the National Labor Relations Board with the Senate failing to confirm Pres. Biden’s nominations to the Board. This clears the decks for the incoming Trump Admnistration to remake the Board much quicker than anticipated. And just down the street, the agency lost a major court battle that could dramatically alter the roles - and tenure - of Administrative Law Judges. We’ll discuss. And we are joined by Mike Whatley, the Vice President of State Affairs and Grassroots Advocacy at the National Restaurant Association to discuss some issues currently percolating, look back at 2024 and look ahead to 2025.

50:08In yet another surprise appointment, President-Elect Trump has nominated an outgoing member of Congress, Rep. Lori Chavez-DeRemer of Oregon, to run the Labor Department. Ironically, she is one of a small handful of Republicans to vote for the PRO Act, organized labor’s signature piece of legislation in years. To say the least, the nomination is causing significant consternation in the business community. We’ll take a deep dive into that. And Waffle House filed a lawsuit against the National Labor Relations Board questioning the consitutionality of the Board and charging that employers are denied due process. What does this mean to pending unfair labor practice accusations against the company as well as the broader corporate campaign being waged against it by the Southern Service Workers union? We’ll take a look at that as well. We’ll talk about those issues and wrap it up with the legislative scorecard.…

1:04:30The President-elect has been shocking allies and foes alike with his nominations for cabinet posts. While some will have more impact on the industry than others, the nomination of Robert F Kennedy, Jr will likely cause shock waves up and down the food supply as he goes after processed food, sodium, sugar and other additives. It’s going to be a wild ride. And we are joined by David King, the Guidance and Outreach Director for the U.S. Treasury Department’s Financial Crimes Enforcement Network to talk about pending regulations regarding Beneficial Ownership Information that all employers must submit to the agency to comply with the Corporate Transparancy Act. He will walk us through the origin of the law, why it’s necessary, and the responsibility of all business owners to file the information.

34:13McDonald’s was all over the news this week for a variety of reasons, not the least of which was a visit to a Pennsylvania restaurant by none other than The Donald himself. Besides his work at the fry station and his voluminous lunch order, what was the key takeaway politically from his visit, both for himself and for the industry? We’ll discuss. And the Gallup organization released survey data regarding American attitudes toward taxes, tax fairness and tax reform. While results were all over the board depending on political ideologies, one thing the vast majority of Americans agreed on was that corporate taxes are too low. We’ll take a look at how that environment may shape the pending tax debate in 2025. We’ll talk about those issues and wrap it up with the legislative scorecard.…

41:42The very liberal governor of Massachusetts made a splash this week when she came out strongly against Question 5, the pending ballot proposal to eliminate the tip credit in the Bay State by 2029. The former server demonstrated her first hand knowledge of the issue and its ramifications for both workers and operators. This is a huge deal and could have implications for how the industry manages the issue across the country going forward. We’ll take a deep dive into this one. And One Fair Wage puts on quite a show in Michigan, upping the ante with an event in downtown Detroit equating tipping with shackles and chains. Oh my. Lots to unpack there.

Also on the panel was One Fair Wage head Saru Jayaraman. Let’s just say Tom had a better day. We’ll dive into that. And former President Trump upped the populist ante this week calling for both the elimination of taxes on overtime wages as well as a 10% cap on credit card interest rates. Both are likely impossible to achieve but it sure makes his audiences respond. We’ll take a look. We’ll talk about those issues and wrap it up with the legislative scorecard.…
