Since you already started this thread, I figured it'd be a better place to continue here (rather than a new thread) for the situation in Iowa.
Quote (Vice News)
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.
