In Mississippi, a 1908 law made it illegal for factories to hire young children under age 12 to work in factories, and established a 10-hour workday, and a 58-hour work week.  The law was ignored by the owners of the seafood canneries, as well as the immigrant families needing the work.
​
In 1939, Congress passed the Fair Labor Standards Act, and today, all the states and federal government have laws regulating child labor.
