I couldnt care less what the goal of the laws are or who is pushing it.. I care about what the actual laws are.. So if you want to convince me this is bad (and it might be because I didnt dig deep enough to read the text on these bills yet), then do so stating specific laws that are problematic, not "look at who is making the laws", thats an extraordinarily weak argument. In fact its an argument that makes you look like the bad guy for not trying to be objective.
@freemo @TruthSandwich The past year or so has seen frequent cases where big corporations got busted for employing children in industrial chicken and meat processing plants, working long hours in dangerous circumstances. These laws are being enacted, mainly at the behest of those big corporations because they no longer have access to an abundance of willing immigrants to fill those jobs.
Children should be in school, doing homework, eating, sleeping, not working in a dangerous chicken processing plant.
Nor am I opposed to young people getting work experience. I did it myself. I worked briefly when I was 16. Then when I was 17 I got a regular job while still in high school, but it was a job that didn't interfere with school: 5 to 9 PM weekdays and all day Saturday. It worked out great and was a great experience doing a wide variety of tasks. That's not the same as working on a production line in a chicken factory.
