Determined efforts to regulate or eliminate child labor have been a feature of social reform in the United States since 1900. The leaders in this effort were the National Child Labor Committee, organized in 1904, and the many state child labor committees.
The use of child labor has been the subject of federal law since the Fair Labor Standards Act of 1938. However, child labor laws go back more than a century earlier, to a Connecticut schooling law of 1813 and the first minimum-age law that passed in Pennsylvania in 1843.At the time, the textile mills of the Northeast were hiring school-age children and paying miserable wages for hazardous work.he state legislature of Massachusetts passed a law in 1836 that required all child workers under the age of 15 to attend school for at least three months a year.
