Today's Hearing on PA Child Labor Laws

ADDED NOTE: Here's the link to watch the tape of the hearings online.

15 Minutes has provided a good synopsis of Jodie Kreider's testimony at today's House Republican Policy Committee's hearings on Pennsylvania’s child labor laws as they relate to film and television production, which was streamed live today. I was only able to see Paul Petersen's testimony live and it was very informative as well as heartrending. I've received copies of his testimony as well as that of the Kreiders and the child psychologist R. Gullen and I'll be reviewing them this evening. Attorney Gloria Allred also testified but she did not provide a written copy of her testimony so I was unable to secure that. I've spoken with Representative Murt's office and there may be a way to access the hearings online for those of us who weren't able to watch the live feed. If that happens I'll let you know here. Meanwhile it's reassuring to know that some of our PA lawmakers are taking a look at this important issue.
