"Bobby" Scott	S000185	bobbyscott.house.gov	bobbyscott	https://bobbyscott.house.gov/media-center/press-releases	scraper	NEWPORT NEWS, VA – Congressman Bobby Scott (VA-03), the Ranking Member of the House Committee on Education and the Workforce, was named a 2024 Congressional Champion of Child Labor Protections by the Child Labor Coalition. This honor was given to Congressman Scott for his stand against child labor exploitation and his sponsorship of H.R. 4440, the Protecting Children Act, legislation that calls for innovative and sweeping strategies to combat child labor. “Children should be learning and growing in schools, not risking their safety and lives in dangerous workplaces,” said Congressman Scott. “The scourge of child labor that Congress sought to eliminate 85 years ago with the passage of Fair Labor Standards Act is back, and it has returned at time when the agencies we expect to provide timely data and aggressive enforcement lack the resources they need. I am proud to receive this honor, and I will remain steadfast in this fight to enact my Protecting Children Act and end abusive child labor.” More information from the Child Labor Coalition can be found by CLICKING HERE.
