i beleive an employer cannot cut your hourly wages without first notifying you

for example, company prez gathers the employees and says “the company is tanking, were loosing money, we cut everything we could, now we have to cut pay, anyone who cant accept 50 cents less an hour, have a nice day, everyone who does accept this, continue showing up for work”

no notification = illegal, there would be nothing stopping a company from saying “well we had a shitty week, cut all of this weeks paychecks by 1/2”
