  1 26    This bill increases the state minimum wage to a wage level
  1 27 of no less than 150 percent of the federal poverty level for a
  1 28 family of one as defined by the most recently revised poverty
  1 29 income guidelines as published in the federal register by the
  1 30 United States department of health and human services.
  1 31    However, if an employee is less than 20 years of age and
  1 32 has not completed 90 calendar days of employment with the
  1 33 employer, the bill permits the employer to pay the youth the
  1 34 wage level provided for under the current federal minimum wage
  1 35 law for youths under 20 years of age who have not completed 90
  2  1 calendar days of employment with the employer, which is
  2  2 currently $4.25, the same amount the Code currently permits an
  2  3 employer to pay any employee who has not completed 90 calendar
  2  4 days of employment with the employer.
