New York Times: Biden Admin Ignored Warnings About Migrant Child Labor, Punished Whistleblowers
by webdev@democracynow.org (Democracy Now!) from Democracy Now! on (#6AYRG)
Our guest Hannah Dreier, a Pulitzer Prize-winning reporter at The New York Times, has published a bombshell new investigation headlined As Migrant Children Were Put to Work, U.S. Ignored Warnings." It reports that the Biden administration has repeatedly ignored or missed warnings about a surge of migrant children as young as 12 working in factories across the United States under grueling and often dangerous working conditions in serious violation of child labor laws. People were punished for bringing this to the attention of their supervisors," says Dreier.
