Tell Newsom to Veto Un-Elected Fast Food Council
AB 257 would upend over 150 years of franchise business modeling within the United States. The FAST Recovery Act would create a council of unelected political appointees - regardless of business experience or not - to run California's entire fast food restaurant industry from Sacramento.
This 'Fast Food Council' would be able to establish wage rates, set working hours, and issues rules and regulation affecting business owners and their employees. Additionally, this proposal would impose joint liability on franchisors for alleged violations by their franchisees, putting stress on franchisors who will not be willing to deal with increased regulation and liability.
Franchisees are small business who's owner's are better equipped to run restaurants in California, more so than political appointees in Sacramento.
