In a 12-3 vote, the council approved the rise for hotels with more than 300 rooms on 1 July 2015 and for hotels with more than 150 rooms a year later.

Mayor Eric Garcetti has said he will sign the bill into law. 美国洛杉矶议会投票决定提高大型酒店的最低工资标准到每小时15.37美元。 议会投票以12:3通过这项提案,决定在2015年7月1 日提高拥有300间以上客房的大型酒店的最低工资,一年之后提高150间以上客房的大型酒店的最低工资。 这项新提出的最低工资标准将是美国最高的最低薪标准之一。 但此举遭到酒店行业的反对,因为提高最低工资将导致工人裁员。而洛杉矶市长贾西提(Eric Garcetti)表示将签署这项法案使之成为法律。
