Republicans in Iowa are pushing a bill to roll back child labor protections.It would allow kids as young as 14 to work certain jobs in meatpacking plants.What if…and hear me out…we paid adult workers a living wage and gave them benefits instead of hiring children to work?

@rbreich I’m willing to consider child labor however lets put the Republicans in the food processing plant and let the children run the Iowa state legislator.

@MarioERoc @rbreich If we put kids in charge things will actually work properly.
