MODERATORS
States do have their own minimums. Washington State for example, is tied to the federal Consumer Price Index and it's at $16.28..
It's not clear whether you're suggesting that tipped workers aren't guaranteed the normal minimum wage.

EDIT: The above comment was completely different at the time I wrote this.
Some states, including Washington have prohibited the tipped minimum wage: https://chicagopolicyreview.org/2023/04/25/behind-usas-tip-culture-a-workaround-for-employers-to-escape-minimum-wage-payments/
Yes, they are guaranteed the normal minimum wage. Sub minimum wages are doo doo
