A number of bikini baristas in Everett, a northern suburb of Seattle, filed a lawsuit against two new dress codes passed in the city on the 11th, accusing them of violating their constitutional rights to freedom of expression and privacy.
According to the Seattle Times, the two laws were unanimously passed by Everett City Council in August and came into effect on September 5.
The lawsuit filed in the federal district court of Huazhou West District wrote that the regulation denied bikini baristas the ability to express themselves through swimsuit choice, violated their right to privacy and denied their due process rights. The lawsuit asked the federal court to declare the law unconstitutional.
The plaintiffs in the lawsuit included seven bikini baristas and an owner of a chain bikini coffee shop. They said that if law enforcement officers investigated them, it would lead to an invasion of their privacy.
"the city government knows that only women work as bikini baristas, and the law is clearly intended to target women," said Derek Newman, a lawyer for the plaintiff. And bikini baristas say the new rules may reduce their tipping income and may even lose their jobs.
A spokesman for the Everett city government declined to comment on the lawsuit. However, Ramsey Ramerman, an assistant city lawyer for Everett, pointed out last month that the regulations are not aimed at women in bikini suits, but to crack down on illegal practices such as forcing shop assistants to engage in prostitution.
It is reported that the regulations require employees of all kinds of "fast-service catering facilities", including coffee shops, to wear at least vests and shorts. Shopkeepers who violate the new regulations will be required to obtain a provisional license to continue their business. If you break the law again, his license will be revoked.
