It's more likely that they'll pass a law rescinding child labor laws and legalizing these practices.
I saw it in the evening news show of a main TV channel (Das Erste) here in germany that Gov. Huckabee of Arkansas introduced a law to roll back child labour laws, which seems a few other of the GOP reigned, god fearing states also like.
Where several parts of Iowas new law are violating federal child labour laws (e.g. Hazardous Occupations Orders) and that's why those states are under federal investigation.
From Europe, I hope your gov keeps the promise of cracking down on migrant child labour in hazardous environment and other trends to return to pre-industrial times (e.g. caregivers who exploit the child labour) and offers those kids better possibilities. Those voters in Iowa, Nebraska and the likes are lost anyway.
Then they'll go home to their constituents and brag about how they: created jobs, reduced the price of chicken for families, and increased profits for chicken farmers.
It's a win-win-win, never mind the dead brown children.
Oh not just the brown kids. Republicans are also totally OK with sacrificing poor white kids.
