佛罗里达州最低工资在2025年9月30日将提高到每小时14美元, Florida’s minimum wage will rise to $14 per hour on September 30, 2025, with tipped workers receiving a base wage of $10.98, but widespread wage theft persists due to weak enforcement. 尽管拥有罚款雇主的法定权力,但佛罗里达州总检察长二十年来从未实施过这种处罚,而且国家也没有专门的劳动执法机构。 Despite having the legal authority to fine employers, Florida’s Attorney General has never imposed such penalties in two decades, and the state lacks a dedicated labor enforcement agency. 工人,特别是农业、建筑和招待业的工人,在收回未付工资方面面临着重大障碍,在人口最多的10个美国州中,违规情况仍然最高。 Workers, especially in agriculture, construction, and hospitality, face significant hurdles in recovering unpaid wages, with violations remaining the highest among the 10 most populous U.S. states. 律师和民主检察官候选人José Javier Rodríguez称这种情况是一场危机,指出每年有10亿多美元的未支付工资以及国家领导人没有采取有意义的行动。 Advocates and Democratic attorney general candidate José Javier Rodríguez call the situation a crisis, citing over $1 billion in unpaid wages annually and a lack of meaningful action by state leadership.
