Virginia GOP Halts Bill To Stop Child Labor On Tobacco Farms

Virginia GOP Halts Bill To Stop Child Labor On Tobacco Farms

"Is this really happening in the 21st Century? Apparently so!

If you think children shouldn't be treated as indentured servants exposed to carcinogens, make sure that you vote against electing these inhuman miscreants to office. Although far from perfect, we know that Democrats aren't in favor of turning the labor law clocks back to the 19th Century!"
