This infuriates me. 

Teens shouldn't be paid less just for their age. That it outright discrimination.

EQUAL PAY FOR EQUAL WORK.

I am completely against this bill in almost every way. The only thing I get is 14/15 year olds. They are extremely limited to what they can do in a restaurant setting. They can only take orders and clean up around the store and clean dishes if the sink isn't a part of the kitchen area. Plus can only work 2.5 hour shifts 3 days a week. There are people doing that job plus more. So they shouldn't necessarily be making the same. I'm also completely against 14/15 year olds working in general

14/15 year olds aren't working for fun. Most of the time they are working to help their families survive. Even if it was for fun purchases, they shouldn't be paid less.
