    I didn’t read it, but the bill eliminates the lunch breaks and cuts the pay of state representatives as well, right? /S

    Any company that trys this will lose a shit ton of employees to a competitor who will offer lunch and rest breaks. Hell thier is no federal law giving workers breaks now and my state doesn’t have it either. Yet every company offers lunch and some offer breaks. Fuck this bill but workers will still get those breaks or they will go work somewhere else.
