The federal government there are labor laws on the books

Fair Labor Standards Act of 1938
Federal child labor act of 1916..

Violating the laws incurs a 10k to 15k per violation
Who is they? The state? The companies?

And im aware of the fines. These companies don’t care because the fines are much less than the work extracted. We need new laws to make this criminal.

Are you a moron? Why you keep asking me who is they? They as in the companies employing these minors illegal, the states passing laws to allow child labor when state laws can supersede federal law.. :dahell:

I keep asking because my post said GOP states are passing laws to roll back child labor laws, and that congress needs to act. I mentioned three different actors and you said “they.”

Nothing you wrote addressEd what my post said. And the penalties for major businesses doing this are miniscule.

Penalties add up.. DOJ can sue those red states in violation of the child labor act

People need the money and the extra family income so things like this will continue to happen.

It’s sad that the American experiment encourages this instead of using our vast resources to eliminate it.

they used to put children in debtors prison with their parents
