And they sell all the best stuff at auction, and the stuff they do let onto the sales floor gets snapped up by scalpers the second the doors open. >

More like the second best stuff will get auctioned, the store owners will probably take whatever they want to keep for themselves first, before it even has time to be accounted for. Why bother paying for a $500 dress they can definitely afford when one just appeared right in front of them for free. >


When it was passed in 1938, the Fair Labor Standards Act (FLSA) established a federal minimum wage, guidelines for overtime pay, and child labor restrictions. It also created 14(c) certificates that permit employers to pay people with disabilities less than the minimum wage. According to a 2020 report from the U.S. Commission on Civil Rights, Americans with disabilities earn on average less than half of the federal minimum wage per hour. 
In October 2022, at least 70,000 people with disabilities were working for 14(c) certificate holders, earning less than the minimum wage. 
For now, Ohio retains its practice of upholding 14(c) certificates despite the Ohio legal code stating that it is unlawful for any employer to discriminate against or limit the employment opportunities of a person because of a disability. According to Dougherty, plans are underway to reintroduce the bill in the state general assembly sometime this year. >
