Allowing employers to waive or undermine minimum pay requirements would weaken wage protections, increase financial instability for workers, and erode basic labor standards that protect low-income and vulnerable employees.

All this bill does is ensure that workers are not paid fairly for their time and will lead to exploitation of workers.
