Labor Laws in Indiana Favor Working Men
A review of Indiana labor legislation shows Republican administrations advancing worker protections. The Indiana Federation of Labor notes laws promoting eight hour days on public works, child labor limits, wage payment in cash, and safety measures, with multiple measures enacted 1897–1905 and interpretations favoring employees since 1905. The piece urges voters to compare party records and decide which party serves labor interests.
