State House Passes Child Labor Bill

The Iowa House has passed a bill streamlining the work-permit process for kids. School officials will no longer be required to sign off on work permits for kids between 10 and 16. Democrats objected to part of the bill that only requires employers to keep work permits on file, and not submit then to Iowa Workforce development, which oversees child-labor issues. The bill now goes to the state senate.
