Remember when I said it should be bigger news that JD Vance thinks labor laws should be left up to the states? www.dol.gov/newsroom/rel...

FEDERAL COURT ORDER REQUIRES TENNESSEE SAWMILL TO PAY $73K IN PENALTIES, TURN OVER $10K IN PROFITS FOR ENDANGERING CHILDREN AT WORK
Plateau Sawmill LLC employed two children - as young as 14-years-old - at the sawmill to unload wooden boards from a conveyor belt in violation of the child labor provisions of the Fair Labor Standards Act. In addition, the sawmill employed a 13-year-old, which violated the FLSA's minimum age standard of 14 years for non-agricultural work.
 Investigators learned the three children worked as early as 6 a.m., an hour earlier than the law permits.

Isn't allowing slavery state-by-state setting labor policy at the state level?

Me: If 14 is the minimum age for non-agricultural work, what's the minimum age for agricultural work? 😬 DOL: Youths of any age may work at any time in any job on a farm owned or operated by their parents. Me: ...is that bad? I feel like that's probably bad. www.dol.gov/agencies/whd...
