NEW YORK (WABC) -- In this edition of Eyewitness News Extra Time, we break down the huge tussle over restaurant tipping in light of New York State's latest legislature.

There's a proposal to force owners to raise restaurant workers' wages to the minimum wage.

Owners say raising the minimum wage will be unfair to them.

Eyewitness News reporter Raegan Medgie spoke to several restaurant workers to get their thoughts.

Joining us with more on the matter is the co-sponsor of the bill, Assemblywoman Jessica González-Rojas.
