In this photo taken Monday, July 27, 2015, workers prepare to bring food orders to customers at an Ivar's restaurant in Seattle. After Seattle's new minimum wage law took effect last April 1, Ivar's Seafood Restaurants announced that it was jacking up its prices by about 21 percent, eliminating tipping as a routine procedure, and immediately paying all its hourly workers a $15 per hour. They began the new pay rate three years earlier than the law required. (Elaine Thompson/Associated Press)
