Republicans of the Wisconsin State Senate released a bill proposal late August that could loosen child labor laws in the state of Wisconsin. If passed, children aged 14-15 would no longer need to obtain a work permit before seeking employment. The bill hasn't yet been formally brought to the Senate, but it is expected to be released in early September, according to the Wisconsin Examiner . But, Governor Evers would likely veto the bill if it passes through the Wisconsin Legislature, according to PBS Wisconsin.
