broadcast center this is abc 7 news. >> good afternoon and thank you for thank you for joining us. i'm ama daetz and i'm larry beil and we begin live over the scene in berkeley where hundreds of protests are are gathering as part of a national movement today. the organizers are calling the fight for 15. this is an effort to get the federal minimum wage increased to $15 an hour. look at all of the people out there. protesters are in full rally mode right now in the plaza on the uc berkeley campus. they're planning to end their march at the mcdonald's on the corner of shattuck and university avenues. katy joins us now from berkeley. >> reporter: the rally started about an hour ago and in that time we watched hundreds of

people pour in from various unions and labor activists here. i'll show you the scene behind me as they are rallying on the uc berkeley campus and as you mentioned the fight for 15 is an effort to get the minimum wage increase and typically when we talk about minimum wage stories we're talking restaurant workers, but this fight for 15 also includes child care workers, cashiers and many more low-wage workers. the other component of their fight is unionizing and i'm joined by one of the organizers, mary kay with sciu. what kind of difference would unionizing make for the folks behind me. >> workers need a seat at the table with multinational corporations like mcdonald's and walmart in order to make sure they have schedules and hours when they raise their wages and a good job is if they can negotiate over skedchedules and get pay for sick time and they can fight for retirement and health care for everyone in this

country and that's why we're so proud to get the union. >> thank you, mary kay. it's a complicated component. it's not just about the dollar amount here that we're talking about and to give you some perspective, oakland recently increased their minimum wage and the impact for small business owners is still being measured and their minimum wage went up to 13 to $25 an hour and we spoke to the owner who speculated a 5% increase in menu pricing and a 15% surcharge cost to cover the cost. >> we spend a lot of time plugging in numbers and saying what's going to work? what's the best way? what can we do? >> jack stewart with aunt mary's cafe says it's too early to say if it hurts his small business and he does say for the restaurant industry how tips are distributed would be more effective in making sure how back-up house people are paid

well. we did speak to other workers who didn't want to go on camera and they're telling us their hours have been reduced to compensate for the higher labor cost. for them the wage increase has been a bit of a wash. back out here live they will be marching through berkeley through that mcdonald's and they'll be there at 5:00 when they arrive. ama? >> katie, thank you so much. we want to give you one more look into what's turning into a large group gathering from berkeley and these are live shots from sky 7 hd and the rally organizers, you can see are in the back of the flat bed truck addressing the protesters who are supposed to start marching pretty soon here and we'll keep you updated throughout the afternoon on abc 7 news and follow us on twitter at abc 7 news bay area. in oakland, we're also there as dozens of demonstrators took over a mcdonald's on telegraph avenue. former labor secretary robert
