The Tipped Minimum Wage Increase Clarification Emergency Amendment Act of 2025 amends the Minimum Wage Act Revision Act of 1992 to delay the implementation of the next increase to the tipped minimum wage, which was scheduled to take effect on July 1, 2025. Specifically, the bill modifies Section 4(f)(6) by striking the phrase "this section." and replacing it with "this section; provided further, that this paragraph shall not apply before October 1, 2025." This change effectively pauses the increase until the new date.

The act is designed to take effect immediately upon approval by the Mayor or, if vetoed, following a Council override, and it will remain in effect for a maximum of 90 days as per the emergency provisions outlined in the District of Columbia Home Rule Act. The Council has also adopted the fiscal impact statement from the Budget Director, which is required for legislative procedures.
