The figure comes from the Hoover Institution, which is a public policy think tank affiliated with Stanford University.

California businesses have purportedly cut roughly 10,000 jobs since Gov. Gavin Newsom signed AB 1228, which increased the state’s minimum wage for fast food workers to $20 per hour.

"California businesses have been under total attack and total assault for years," CABIA President Tom Manzo said. "It's just another law that puts businesses in further jeopardy." It's a starter industry," he said. "You get a job as a kid working in a fast food restaurant and you learn some good work ethic and that takes you into life."
