Jack, this is alarming: Child labor violations in the U.S. have soared by 283% since 2015.

Sign the petition: The GOP is weakening child labor laws. Stop them!

SIGN THE PETITION

Despite heart-wrenching stories of young lives lost in preventable workplace accidents, GOP lawmakers in states across the country have introduced legislation to dismantle essential safeguards, posing a grave risk to the safety and well-being of our children.

The exploitation of children revives images of a bygone era devoid of basic worker protections. It disproportionately impacts children of color and those from low-income families, exacerbating existing racial and income inequalities.

We must safeguard our children's futures against the backdrop of economic interests that threaten to undermine decades of progress in child labor law enforcement.

Sign the petition: Stand against the weakening of child labor laws.
