Bill overview
This bill seeks to encourage Massachusetts to support the ratification of a proposed federal constitutional amendment regarding child labor laws. The amendment aims to establish stricter federal standards for child labor, potentially limiting the types of jobs children can hold and the hours they can work. By urging ratification, the state would demonstrate its commitment to ensuring children's well-being and safety in the workforce. This action aligns with broader efforts to modernize and strengthen federal protections for young workers.
