The Labor Department withdrew a proposed rule Thursday that would have limited the work that children can perform on farms.
The proposal drew heavy criticism from rural-state lawmakers and agricultural leaders, who cast the rule as government overreach that would erode the
traditional American family. Others in Congress supported the rule, and unions argued it was needed to make farm work safer for young adults.
In nixing the proposal, the Labor Department cited the need to protect "the rural way of life."

"The Obama administration is firmly committed to promoting family farmers and respecting the rural way of life, especially the role that parents
and other family members play in passing those traditions down through the generations," the Labor Department said in a statement announcing the
withdrawal of the rule.
"The Obama administration is also deeply committed to listening and responding to what Americans across the country have to say about proposed rules
and regulations."
