New ballot measure to ban the hidden fees at restaurants in SF
- scoofy 2y agoTransparent Restaurant Pricing Act California banned junk fees. Then the legislature changed its mind and passed a carve-out for restaurants. We’re trying to stop it, and we need your help. Petition circulation begins Saturday, March 1, 2025.

(Maybe it’s necessary for San Francisco politics.) The only legitimate exemption are fixed-charge fees which are clearly disclosed during the ordering process. Exempting unions, service charges and taxes is arbitrary.
