Booker, Welch, Casar Announce the Introduction of Bicameral Bill to Hold Corporations Accountable for Child Labor Violations

Press Release

"We must hold companies accountable if they violate labor laws and exploit workers, including vulnerable children. Companies that benefit from federal contracts have a responsibility to ensure that their workers, whether direct employees or contract workers, are treated fairly and safely. My bill will ensure companies are barred from participating in federal contracts if they engage in labor law violations that include the use of child labor. This sends a clear message to corporations that they cannot put their profits above the health, safety, and well-being of workers, especially children."
