Iowa Senate approves child labor before sunrise.
TL;DR Summary
The Iowa state Senate passed a bill along party lines loosening restrictions on employment for teens aged 14 to 16, allowing 14-year-olds to work six-hour night shifts, 15-year-olds to work on assembly lines moving items up to 50 pounds, and 16-year-olds to serve alcohol. The move was defended by Republicans as providing protections to youth, while Democrats argued it puts kids in dangerous situations.
