The minimum wage for workers at larger hotels and LAX would rise to $30 an hour by 2028 under a proposal to be voted on Wednesday by the L.A. City Council.
The Los Angeles City Council on Wednesday postponed a vote on a major boost to wages for hotel and airport workers, voicing concerns over whether the pay hike would damage the city's tourism industry. The council's decision to push the vote off until Dec. 11 came as hotel owners were threatening to pull out of a deal to provide tens of thousands of rooms during the 2028 Olympic games if the pay increase is approved, saying it would decimate their bottom line.
'To put it plainly, this staggering increase in costs makes it unfeasible for most if not all signatory hotels to participate in LA28’s hotel room block.' If the rate hike goes through, the letter said, 'many if not all' the hotels represented by the group would use a clause in the contracts to back out of the deal. The rooms were to be used to house thousands of people associated with the International Olympic Committee, the U.S.
