President. I rise today to talk about the important issue of child labor in tobacco fields. I want to tell you about Calvin. a 17yearold boy just over five feet tall. who migrated to the United States by himself at age 13. leaving his family behind in Mexico. Calvin never enrolled in school. Instead. he joined a migrant crew that travels between several states to work in different crops. He migrates to Kentucky in August to work in the tobacco fields. Calvin has worked in tobacco farms since he was 16. and he experiences headaches and nausea from nicotine poisoning.
