The federal minimum wage for tipped workers has remained $2.13 per hour for the last 25 years in the United States, leaving many -- especially food service employees -- grappling with poverty rates that are twice as high that of regular workers.

On Saturday, NewsHour's Alison Stewart reports on how employees and employers alike are faring.
