AI Summary
This bill prohibits political subdivisions (such as counties and municipalities) from establishing or enforcing minimum wage requirements, employment benefit requirements, or regulations on employee scheduling, except as required by state or federal law. It also prohibits political subdivisions from giving preference or consideration to employers based on their heat exposure requirements or employment practices when awarding contracts. The bill aims to standardize employment regulations at the state or federal level, rather than allowing local variations.
