Committee Leaders Ask Republicans to Put Actions Behind Their Words and Hold Hearing on Child Labor Violations

Press Release

Date: June 8, 2023
Location: Washington, DC
Issues: Minors and Children Employment and Affirmative Action

"The scourge of child labor that Congress sought to eliminate 85 years ago with the passage of FLSA is back, and it has returned at time when the agencies we expect to provide timely data and aggressive enforcement lack the resources they need. We ask that you schedule a hearing this month so that Committee members have the opportunity to hear about the nature and scope of the child labor problem confronting the country and the legislative solutions to address it."
