The Labor Dept. said it found 102 children, some as young as 13, working hazardous overnight jobs cleaning slaughterhouses in 8 states in what it called a “corporate-wide failure” by one of the largest food sanitation companies in the country.

Funny your status above doesn't mention they were all illegals.

America doesn’t value the life and well being of its own children why would they care about someone else’s. We allow ours to be shot down at schools.

Profits before people.

Cleaning a slaughterhouse I'm sure it was horrendous still it was better than those children being used as prostitutes on the street I pray that you put them in a safe situation now where they're well cared for

So sad. The children must of truly needed the money they earned to support their families. Did the government make sure the children have some form of money coming in now ? And are the children safe now?

Disgusting.

Where are the lazy good for nothing parents who pimp their kids out for money, sounds like modern day slavery

And exactly zero replies, explaining, comments, or oh, we’re going to look into this from TeamPillen USRepMikeFlood SenatorFischer or SenatorRicketts GOPCorruptionOverCountry GOPClownshow

GOP/magat idea of heaven.

I have no doubt Arkansas is one of those states. I know they have in the past. I'm disappointed that my home state of Iowa is!

And not a drag show in sight. Now tell me, who is endangering children?

13 is legal in some states. I had paper routes until 14 and then worked in lumber yards in high school and one factory job at 17. Good pay and character biulding.

Name the company in the headline.

This is why IAGovernor is rolling back child labor laws. She wants to protect the corporate interests of her handlers.

Like many companies they contract out the work so they are less liable for injuries or managing workers that this occurs. This allows use of underaged and undocumented workers with no penalties. “I didn’t know who they hired.”

Which states ?

Welcome to Biden’s America! 🙏🇺🇸

😧😯😬😪😠

From the Prolife party 🙄🙄🙄something, something about protecting all children with a heartbeat🙄🙄🙄🙄🙄🙄🙄🙄🙄

'Failure' makes it sound like they just 'didn't manage' to NOT knowingly abuse children in direct violation of the law. That's like claiming Hannibal Lecter 'failed to respect a normal diet'. USDOL Make horrific examples of the execs and board, or companies will normalize this.

I was sure the story was about Chinese multistorey pighouse, but no It is about using (abusing) children in overnight cleaning jobs at American slaughterhouses. An outrage!

Its all part of Biden's American Jobs plan!

Well at the rate we are going economically we are going to need kids to work to help support their families and provide enough for all the taxes we keep getting pinned on us
