Las Vegas -For waiters, dealers and bartenders on the Vegas Strip, the tip is more than just thank you - they are paychecks.

“Some days we really do well and people will be surprised, ‘Oh my goodness, will you do that one day?’ Then, you often do nothing,” Sebastian Espinoza said.

Espinoza is the bus table at one of the city's largest casinos and is one of the approximately 365,000 hospitality workers in Las Vegas. According to the St. Louis Federal Reserve Bank, Nevada has the highest concentration of tip workers overall.

For Espinoza, inflation has turned a trip to the grocery store into a gambling game.

"Half a shopping cart, I spent over $100, and I didn't get quality stuff. I got basic necessities," he said.

That's President Trump's campaign promise to get his attention by removing the tip tax. But 100 days after Trump's second term, there is still no legislation on this issue.

Union leaders, including former president and current secretary, trained 226 staff members locally, kept scoring.

“What we want to see from President Trump is the real action on this issue, not the commitment,” said Ted Pappageorge of the Culinary League Place.

"The president is working closely with Congress to complete the work," White House press secretary Karoline Leavitt told CBS News in a statement.

There are two bills passed by the committee. The Senate’s tax-free tax on the tips law is just a clear federal income tax on the tips. The House Tips Act, Democratic Rep. Steven Horsford, does the same and will also replace a $2.13 minimum wage, with the current federal minimum limit of $7.25.

"The lean workers in this country are worth living. I believe a job should be enough. I believe a fair wage."

Finance Minister Scott Bessent believes that the revenue from the tariffs can be funded this summer in a comprehensive tax package this summer.

"If we can get bipartisan support and the president does have the opportunity to ask this question as he promised," Papagelge said.

Espinoza said that without paying federal taxes for his skills, hundreds of dollars will be released every month.

"I don't know what that is," he said. "I don't know what politics is, but if we can cut BS now and save a lot of families from a tougher, harder time, that's helping a lot of people."
