All they have to do is make the declaration. So. Mr. President. the argument that because they are seasonal and migrant workers. that employers might cheat. is not an argument. If they are going to cheat. they will not pay the minimum wage anyway. Who I am protecting are the people that are complying with the law. The laws says exactly what you should do. If they do that. then the employer cannot cheat. Finally. the bill that we are debating now says that a declaration by the employee that he or she has gone through a training period of 180 days entitles that employee. if that employee works. to the full minimum wage.
