It absolutely violates the spirit even if not the letter of federal law. Using undocumented minors as cheap, dangerous child labor is immoral. If I were president now, we would go after this like sharks.
The U.S. Labor Department says Iowa's child labor bill may violate federal law. They state that allowing 14- and 15-year-olds to do assembly line work is illegal. And that allowing 14- and 15-year-olds to work in meat freezers is explicitly prohibited. thegazette.com/state-governm…

Several Congresspeople have made comments that we need illegal immigrants to pick crops. They said if we don't get illegal immigrants in Florida, the crops "will rot in the fields." I can't believe how brazenly they talk about migrants as field slaves.

You can't solve the issues created by capitalism, with capitalist solutions.
