The bill is a resolution from the Minnesota Legislature reaffirming its ratification of the Child Labor Amendment to the United States Constitution. The resolution highlights the historical context of child labor in the U.S., referencing the Supreme Court's 1918 decision in Hammer v. Dagenhart, which limited Congress's authority to regulate child labor. It notes that the Child Labor Amendment, passed by Congress in 1924 and ratified by Minnesota in 1933, grants Congress the power to regulate the labor of individuals under eighteen years of age. The resolution also acknowledges that no state has ratified the amendment since 1937, despite a resurgence of interest in its ratification in recent years.

Furthermore, the resolution directs the Secretary of State of Minnesota to prepare and send copies of this memorial to various federal officials, including the President, members of Congress, and Minnesota's Senators and Representatives. This action aims to reaffirm Minnesota's commitment to the principles of the Child Labor Amendment and to encourage further discussion on the topic at the national level.
