New Hampshire Libertarian Party draws backlash for calling to end child labor laws
Fox News
The Libertarian Party of New Hampshire ignited a social media firestorm this week when it called for the legalization of child labor.
"Legalize child labor. Children will learn more on a job site than in public school," the New Hampshire Libertarian Party wrote on Twitter on Monday. "At the very least, the minimum age to work is a states' rights issue. Federal minimum work ages are unconstitutional." "Child labor laws don't prevent 4-year-olds from working in the coal mines, they prevent 14-year-olds from working in flower shops," the post continued. The New Hampshire Libertarian Party faced immediate backlash for the message.More Related News
