Weakened child labor protections in AR (cx, I originally said AK) - no longer requires work permits for 14- and 15yos. (Walz of course had just signed universal free school lunches. Chalk and cheese, these two.)

Arkansas Gov. Sanders signs a law that makes it easier to employ children

Under the Youth Hiring Act of 2023, those under 16 don't have to get the Division of Labor's permission to be employed. The state also doesn't have to verify their age anymore.

Ugh.
