the national restaurant association are very powerful lobbying organization. they have been enormously successful because we have not raised the minimum wage since 2007. this powerful lobbying organization is going around telling members of the house and senate that raising the tipped wage is opposed by restaurant workers and would be harmful to the interests of waiters and waitresses and other people. that is not true. that is what lobbyists say, representing big money interests. that is what they are paid to say, but that is not what workers who wait on tables are telling us. host: bernie sanders from earlier this month about covid lobbying. the $15 minimum wage was eventually removed from the american rescue plan. karl evers-hillstrom, when we talk about the final package, how do you find out who eventually lobbied for it? tell us the process you go through there at open secrets? guest: all lobbying clients and firms have to file reports with congress laying out how much they spent on lobbying, what bills they were lobbying and what issues they were lobbyin

the national restaurant association, very powerful lobbying organization, has suggested to members ofongress that this legislation is opposed by restaurant workers and would be harmful to their interests. this is not true. one fair wage, an organization representing service employees, has just delivered to the white house a petition with 140,000 signatures from service workers who are demanding that they receive the same minimum wage as every other worker in their state. polling among service employees and nonservice employees, also supports the reality that americans want our waiters and waitresses and other service employees to get a fair minimum wage. now, i have heard from some people that those people are working in the service industry are doing really well, you know, and they don't want an increase in the federal minimum wage. the tips that they are receiving are covering all of their needs. leave well enough alone, they say. well, today 70% of tip workers are women who suffer from three times the poverty rate of the rest of the u.s. workforce. they are not doing so well. they

sales fell by 15 to 20%, and the national restaurant association egg p pegs it at 27%, and juxtapose to third-party apps to your point, and growing over 100%. so when we look at how the market is divided up, we think that 1 of 10 dollars of restaurant food was sold to third party apps and that is up about from 1 in $20 last year, and by 2028, we think it is 1 in every $6. so that allows for a lot of growth for companies like uber and doordash and aggregate to have solid top line food sales for 15 to 20% annually for the next three to four years. >> deirdre, but i am curious not just about the dollar growth and the market share, but also about profitability going forward and that is why i am pressing on this vertical integration question. doordash has been right about something in the suburbs, and i wonder who has got the better technology, and who has the better data and the better process? >> that is a great question, jon, and i'm so glad that you asked about the profitability, and because, i have to question, brian, because you prefer uber, because it is looking less expe expensive

. >> reporter: national restaurant association did a survey that said when are we going to be back to2%, i think, said it's going to take a year. another half to three-quarters said more than a year. some people said we'll never be back to normal. you actually expanded. maybe if pete goes inside, you actually knocked a hole in your wall and expanded during the pandemic. what were you thinking this. >> well, during the pandemic we're not public health professionals, we're restaurant people, and the virus kind of dictates the pace of reopening. and the most important thing for us was to be able to open safely for both our patrons and our staff. so because physical distance is so important, the business here was expanding because they had at contract -- >> reporter: they moved out, you moved in. >> right. we continued to have dining capacity but still maintain physical distance for our patrons. >> reporter: cheryl, the creativity of the american restaurant our, that's part -- restauranteur, that's part of his management team in the back. people want to be outside, so the managers get to

that money we got almost to $25 million the money kept trickling in there at the end the national restaurant associatione are learning a lot more about to-go, more about delivery they're learning to -- they're kind of learning how their restaurants are able to work the dining in is still a really difficult part, and dining out can't happen all over the country, especially because of weather. restaurants are coming back. we're resilient. this is what we do in this industry >> your new season of "tournament of champions" helps local restaurants. can you tell us about the impact of that? >> well, okay. so "tournament of champions," listen, i've done so many different types of shows on the food network, and this is one of my favorites i designed this three, four years ago with my buddy, brian we wanted to make a competition that can never be duplicated the randomizer there, it gives a different protein, a different vegetable, a different piece of equipment, different style of food, and different time for these chefs are really put under the -- i mean, they're put under the gun. i've never seen anything this

really want to take my hat off to the independent restaurant coalition as well as the national restaurant associationinally came through on behalf of an industry that is not one big monolith and therefore probably hard for a lot of people to appreciate how many americans are employed in this industry, and how many towns and villages and cities rely on their restaurants for their economic activity as well as really for the emotional well-being of those communities. >> danny, aelgts sara. good to hear you so optimistic we've talked to you over the low points of the last year. how are you think being the other side once they continue to fully reopen, what is a place like new york which you have such a presence and history and look like, we've gone through so much in terms of the pandemic, real estate, offices, now tax increases potentially, what's the prognosis? >> tough i think you'd have to be kind of crazy to think it's going to be easy, because it won't be. most of us have been doing business with long-term leases that were based on a reality that no longer exists. we don't have nearly the density i

all of the big box retailers, any national chain, any reputable business is saying that these mask mandates need to stay in an place and the texas restaurant associationg restaurants in the state, 75% of them say they're still going to adhere to these restrictions. now, we have seen some pushback. a couple of local restaurants notified local media they received threats from people saying they were going to alert immigration and customs enforcement about their staff and have them investigated if they didn't lift the restrictions but so far those kind of things seem to be relatively few and far between. so we'll just have to wait and see how this unfolds but in the meantime here in houston people will adhere to these guidelines. >> irony, maybe, you wear the mask, you get more people in the restaurants and bars. thank you very much. >>> well as there are some that look to celebrate the decision in texas, other local leaders are criticizing the move. the mayor of san antonio called it a huge mistake saying we're not out of the woods yet. he's an independent and joins us now. thank you so much for taking the time this morning. >> it is good to be with you

it looks like the national bureau of economic research will wind up declaring to be the official recession associated with the pandemic, there were many closures of bars and restaurantsnd small businesses. of course, the impact on working women in particular and on low income workers has been disproportionate. it is going to take some time to work through those issues and figure out how to fully maximize our economic productivity and get back to the level we were before. because we were coming out of 10 years of economic growth, that is pretty incredible. it wasn't going to last forever but it would be nice to get back there again. host: given the magnitude of its pandemic and the global effects, are there any parallels that economists can turn to? for example, is 2008 in relative comparison? jayme lemke: i think it is a very relevant comparison and it was a similar crisis in the sense that it also had a disproportionate impact on low income workers although at a slightly different segment of the population. we saw the same kind of dramatic, quick downturn. host: fortunately, it looks like we are seeing a quicker recovery this time but i think learning from the mecha

our nation schools had been fully returned to in-person learning, jeopardizing the future and potential of an entire generation of americans. businesses are still close, with the restaurant association estimating that 100,000 restaurants will not ever be back to welcome customers. and the tools we have to solve these urgent problems, a vaccine should be reaching more americans faster. the cdc stated that we are averaging 2 million shots in arms per day. but this administration has not updated its goal to reach 100 million shots in 100 days. which was already the trajectory when the president took office in january. instead, we should set aspirational goals like we did with the development of the vaccine, not easily attainable once. when we look at where we are in response today, the data shows a significant decline in covid cases and hospitalizations. share this with my colleagues, not because we should let up on our response, because i believe we are the greatest moment right now to learn from our progress and to learn from our failures. the time to capture the lessons we are learning is now, in realtime. and not months down the road work case levels are low, tensions plans are sho

the national restaurant association estimates that 110,000 restaurants have either shuttered for good or shuttered today as a result of covid-19. we need to direct help to the restaurant community. the shuttered venue program needs additional support, an extra $1.25 billion is provided for shuttered venues. let me give you one example. the merry weather post pavilion located in howard county, maryland -- i've been there many times -- has not operated since last march. they need help. a thousand jobs is dependent on the merriwether post pavilion. i'm surele all of my colleagues can mention the venues in their own state that need this help. we provided $7.2 billion for nonprofit. johns hopkins university has done a study and shown the employment level in our nonprofit community has dropped one million jobs since covid-19 occurred. we know the great work they do, how they step up and help us during any time, but particularly during a pandemic and during a national crisis. they need help and they should be eligible to be able to receive the help under the small business p.p.p. program. th

national federation of independent business, which is key voting of this vote. it has also been endorsed by the u.s. chamber of commerce, the american hotel and lodging association, the international franchise association, the national restaurant association, the u.s. travel association, and the independent community bankers of america. the house passed this clean p.p.p. extension last week by an overwhelming margin of 415-3. with the house now in recess and the senate leaving this week, advancing a clean extension through the senate ensures the continuation of this vital relief for our small businesses and their employees. we simp lip have to get -- we simply have to get this done. madam president, i agree with my colleagues that there are further improvements that could be made to p.p.p., such as addressing an issue facing certain sole proprietors. unfortunately, the new administration changed the rules so sole proprietors who applied early when the program reopened in january were treated differently than sole proprietors who are applying now. that obviously doesn't make sense. we should have the same rule. i have talked with the new s.b.a. administrator about this problem. she agrees that it is unfair and needs to be fixed
