I never have seen many bulldozers on a farm. incidentally. but I wonder how many Members of the House have attended county fairs where these kids have had competition in driving a tractor. driving a hay rig. bringing it up and back. where they had to go through stakes. having a contest. and then back it into place. I have seen girls 10 years of age handle a tractor better than most of us Members of the House could do. and having a wonderful time. Maybe it is hazardous. but they did it better than I could and probably better than most Members of this House could. While this bill pertains to or wants to deal with migrant labor. it in fact prevents any youngster under 12 years of age from working on a farm. If that is the case. I am against it.
