🥬 The Diarrhea Lettuce Company Has Been Linked to Forced Labor
Taylor Farms, the produce giant behind the current cyclospora outbreak and last year's deadly E. coli romaine recall, has been contracting prison labor from Arizona at $4.75/hour. The incarcerated workers themselves take home max $1.50/hour. A 2023 Prison Legal News report resurfaced this week connecting the dots.

Love how the USA decided to become truly socialist and make slavery owned by the people for the people

The #US has arguably the strongest restrictions on forced labor imports of any country. It has prohibited the importation of goods made with #SlaveLabor for nearly a century, though it still allows #PrisonLabor under conditions that labor organizations consider coercive. In 2021, under Biden, the US passed a #law banning imports from a region of China where it had found forced labor to be rampant.

"Prisoners in Minnesota are earning less than a dollar an hour making products for Disney. That’s according to organizers and former inmates who gathered at a press conference in December to share what they’ve learned — or experienced firsthand — about the exploitative prison labor system in Minnesota.
Organizers with the Incarcerated Workers Organizing Committee called the press conference last month to update the public about their campaign to end what they call prison slavery.
The Minnesota constitution allows for exactly that – slavery as part of a punishment for a crime. Under article one, section two of the state’s constitution, involuntary servitude is barred unless someone has been convicted of a crime. Under the statute, prisoners can be subjected to unpaid and grossly underpaid work.
Through a subcontractor, Anagram International LLC, Disney has taken advantage of this law to extract nearly-free labor from the state’s inmates, paying them $0.90 an hour to fold large Mylar balloons, according to organizers of the event and two inmates who shared their firsthand experience."

CA Relies on Incarcerated Firefighters. They Finally Make Federal Minimum Wage.
California relies heavily on incarcerated firefighters to protect life and property, but pays them a pittance. Recently, a major grassroots and legislative push to improve working conditions for incarcerated firefighters enjoyed some success. On October 13, Gov. Gavin Newsom signed AB 247 into law, raising their base pay and doubling the amount by which they can reduce their sentences.

Todays a good day to resurface the @BrennanCenter analysis on Trump’s Presidency and the the Private Prison Industry.
Mass #deportations, increased #criminalization, & many eager U.S. corporations ready to use #prisonlabor for profit margins. What could possibly go wrong!

American prisons run on forced labor. For @bolts, historian Robert Chase answered reader questions about the legal basis for paying incarcerated people below minimum wage, whether the Americans with Disabilities Act applies in these circumstances, who has the authority to stop prison labor, and more.
