Chicago’s $15 per hour minimum wage took effect Thursday, and McDonald’s workers rallied outside the fast-food giant’s corporate headquarters in the West Loop to celebrate but also demand more.
McDonald’s has long been a focus of the “Fight for $15” movement, which pushed for a $15 minimum hourly wage. Cashiers, cooks and other employees who showed up Thursday held aloft two large red numerals a “1” and a “5.”
“Today is the day that fast-food workers like me have fought for with a lot of hard work, sweat, and tears,” said McDonald’s employee Adriana Alvarez. “When we first announced our demands for a $15 minimum wage, we were told we were crazy. But we knew and still know that we were worth more than $7.85.”
