Rolling back protections against child labor - with a smiley face and kids standing there! Even at that age, the children are standing there stone-faced like, “We’re supposed to be happy about this…?”

Jesus weeps. Arkansas Gov. Sarah Huckabee Sanders just signed a measure loosening child labor protections in the state. The bill eliminates a requirement that the state verify the age of children under 16 before companies can hire them.

YOU DO NOT care ABOUT the American worker's NATIONAL WORK CMOP COMMISSION. America's workers have failed since 1972. You do not care about injured workers' children or not.

Honestly, there may be a silver lining in this. At a time where many are giving up on college, this may encourage more trades to start recruiting from high schools & perhaps they can have trade curriculum choices to help them do it. Also, they still have the Federal I-9 to do.

What's magic about 16 years old? Working teaches kids responsibility, how to deal with adults, and the value of education. No one is putting these kids into dangerous jobs.

I worked on a farm at 13 driving a tractor because I could get a drivers learners permit at 13 1/2. It was good for me! Learned responsibility and developed a strong work ethic instead of staying home watching TV.
