When you look at the bill and the amendments they are trying to make, it truly is evil that someone wrote this on paper.

The amendments remove a lot of verbiage and instead of solidifying protections, puts them into a gray area.

Minors 16 and 17 years of age may Shall not be employed, permitted, or suffered to work the same number of hours as a
person who is 18 years of age or older.

18 year olds can work 72 hours in a week, how does a child go to school with that schedule?

Minors 15 years of age or younger may shall not be employed, permitted, or suffered to work in any gainful
occupation for more than 6 consecutive days in any one week.

No days off

Minors 16 and 17 years of age may shall not be employed, permitted, or suffered to work before 6:00 6:30a.m. Or after 11:00 p.m. or for more than 8 hours in any one day when school is scheduled the following day.

These guys are insane if they think kids are going to be able to work overtime and go to school the next day.

they clearly don't want them to go to school. they think that schools have become communist indoctrination centers. going right back to mccarthyism: https://floridianpress.com/2024/02/a-stain-on-human-existence-anti-communism-classes-to-come-to-florida-schools/

Cerfs are easier to tame when they’re illiterate and believe in the one true god, the king.

if we were back to mccarthyism the overwhelming majority of the republican party would be in prison for being communist agents.

This comment is innacurate. The text does not change from "shall not" to "may", it changes from "shall not" to "may not", staying in the negative.

What is the difference between "shall not" and "may not" in this context?

meanmon13 ,

Shall is without exception, may allows for exceptions

At this speed they'll legalize child marriage by the end of 2025

Uranium3006 ,

It's already legal

There's really no other way to interpret "prohibit police oversight boards" as anything other than "we're gonna let the police be as fascist as they want". If Floridians could read, they'd be very upset.

I'm pissed...but I can't read, I just am mad at the picture...

Seriously this place sucks

THere is another way to interpret it.

"We need police to be complicit in our overthrow of democracy and the institution of a fascist state, so we will remove oversight that might see those that align with our values removed"

Can we just take a punt on Florida? I hope everyone can escape! So sad for the kids.

Best way for commercial real estate to buy up properties is to push the populace out.

dangblingus ,

But if it sucks to live in Florida anyway, who cares?

It doesn't suck for a very specific sort of people.

Why stop there? The world has never needed huge empires.

Escape? I'm here for the front row seats to the category 6 hurricane that is going to take the heart of every landlord and insurance brokerage firm in the whole state.
