Florida amendment would halt min. wage increase for ex-felons

FAC Contributor #3 33 Comments min read

Florida State Senator Jeff Brandes introduced an amendment this past week that would reduce the eventual $15 minimum wage rate for ex-felons and workers under 21. If passed, it would reduce the minimum wage rate for prisoners in the state correctional system, employees convicted of a felony, employees younger than 21, and “hard-to-hire” employees.

If Florida lawmakers approve the amendment, it would be on the ballot for Florida voters to decide in 2022.
