Some service industry folks I've talked to are happy about it. Some are cautiously optimistic. I still think it's a good step in the right direction, but like I said - I'm worried chain restaurants will move back in to fill the void and I'd rather have small businesses to go to.

Vote with your dollars. I won't go to Elysian anymore b/c of AB's antiunion shit a few days ago.

Yeah same with Starbucks. I can't support them after everything they've done against unions.
