Iowa Senate Pulls All-Nighter to Roll Back Child Labor Protections. The Senate voted on a bill allowing 14-year-olds to work six-hour night shifts, and passed it at 4:52 a.m.


Children in Iowa would be allowed to work longer hours and jobs that are currently prohibited, like assembly-line work or serving alcohol, according to a new bill that the Iowa Senate passed before dawn Tuesday morning, in the biggest push to roll back child labor protections in the U.S since the 1930s.

The bill, Senate File 542, would let 14-year-olds work six-hour night shifts, 15-year-olds “perform light assembly work” and move items of up to 50 pounds, and 16- and 17-year-olds serve alcohol, if their parent or guardian signs a waiver. The Senate voted 32-17, with one Republican representative joining all 16 Democrats in opposition, and the bill passed at 4:52 a.m.

Democrats in the Senate tried throughout the debates to introduce additional workers compensation benefits for children, who are more likely to get injured on the job because of their inexperience. They were unsuccessful.

“You don’t like it being branded as a bill about child labor, but yet your bill talks about kids getting injured in the workplace,” said Democratic Senator Nate Boulton in the floor debates.

Shocking.

I am sure putting 16 year old girls in bars won't result in anything terrible, nor will putting 16 year olds on factories and meat packing plants where they can get maimed.

THINK

OF

THE

SAVINGS

THOUGH

Supposedly it’s because of his texts where he disparaged management and questioned the guests they wanted him to host. Seems like a bad time to remove him when he can go elsewhere now and say whatever he wants. A settlement means little if you fire the same people that were going to be witnesses and let them speak freely for other people. Fox’s crows coming home to roost.
