ADVISORY OPINION TO THE 
ATTORNEY GENERAL
 
RE:  FLORIDA MINIMUM 
WAGE AMENDMENT
___________________________________________________________________
         The Attorney General has asked the Court for an advisory opinion as to 
whether the financial impact statement prepared by the Financial Impact Estimating 
Conference on the constitutional amendment, proposed by initiative petition, entitled 
"A new section for Article X. is created Florida Minimum Wage Amendment" is in 
accordance with section 100.371, Florida Statutes.  The Court finds no basis for 
rejecting the financial impact statement under section 100.371(6), Florida Statutes, as 
amended by chapter 2004-33, section 3, Laws of Florida.  The financial impact 
statement may be placed on the ballot, but the Court expresses no opinion on the 
merits of the financial impact statement.
No motion for rehearing will be allowed.
PARIENTE, C.J., and WELLS, ANSTEAD, LEWIS, QUINCE, CANTERO and 
BELL, JJ., concur.
