14-year-olds to work overnight as immigrants get deported
In Florida, 16- and 17-year-olds are currently prohibited from working before 6:30 am and after 11 pm on school days.
They are also barred from working more than 30 hours a week during the school year.
A new proposal would remove all of those restrictions – including the requirement that teens get a meal break, the Miami Herald reported.
Governor Ron DeSantis supports the measure and argues it’s a way to address what he calls “dirt cheap” labor from illegal immigrants.
