Be it resolved by the Senate of the State of Arizona, the House of Representatives concurring:

1. Article XVIII, Constitution of Arizona, is proposed to be amended by adding section 11 as follows if approved by the voters and on proclamation of the Governor:

11. Tipped workers; wages

SECTION 11. For any employee who customarily and regularly receives tips or gratuities from patrons or others, the employer may pay a wage up to twenty-five percent per hour less than the minimum wage established by statute if the employer can establish by the employer's records of charged tips or gratuities or by the employee’s declaration for federal insurance contributions act purposes that for each week, when adding tips or gratuities received to wages paid, the employee received not less than the minimum wage plus $2 for all hours worked. Compliance with this section is determined by averaging tips or gratuities received by the employee over the course of the employer’s payroll period or any other period selected by the employer that complies with laws enacted by the legislature.

Sec. 2. Short title
