DYK: #US federal law does not meet international #ChildLabor standards? Kids can work unlimited hours on farms from the age of 12, & 16-17 yr-olds can do hazardous agricultural work. Until we #EndUSChildLabor, the US is #NotSafeForKids. #WDACL2024

DYK: #US law lets 12yr-olds toil in #tobacco fields? Nicotine is a neurotoxin - harvesting it is harmful to kids. Write to #Congress to stop kids working in tobacco! @EndUSChildLabor#WorldNoTobaccoDay https://t.co/C28ci2VJRI
Farming #tobacco can cause breathing difficulties, nausea, headaches, dizziness, rashes, & irritation to mouth & eyes. But in the #US a 12yr-old can do this hazardous work. Write to legislators to stop #ChildLabor in tobacco @EndUSChildLabor https://t.co/C28ci2VJRI
We don't let kids smoke #tobacco because it's harmful. But in the #US, it's legal for 12yr-olds to work in toxic tobacco fields. Banning #ChildLabor in tobacco is a no-brainer - you can write to legislators now! #WorldNoTobaccoDay@EndUSChildLabor https://t.co/C28ci2VJRI
