| 520 | |a "In 1938 the Fair Labor Standards Act authorized the use of subminimum wages for workers with disabilities. While some states have banned their use, it remains legal federally. The program known as 14(c) has a long history of poor oversight and abuse. While disability rights have grown in the United States, this issue lags decades behind"-- |c Provided by publisher. | ||
| 520 | |a "In Twenty-Two Cents an Hour, Doug Crandell uncovers the harsh reality that too many people with disabilities in the United States are forced to work in unethical conditions for subminimum wages with little or no opportunity to advocate for themselves, while wealthy CEOs grow even wealthier as a direct result. In 2016, the United States Congress enacted bipartisan legislation that continued to legally allow workers with disabilities to be paid far lower than the federal minimum wage. Drawing on ongoing US Department of Justice lawsuits, the horrifying story of Henry's Turkey Farm in Iowa, and more, Crandell illuminates the history of the policies that have led to these unjust outcomes, examines who benefits from this legislation, and asks important questions about the rise of a disability industrial complex. Exposing this complex - one rooted in profit, lobbying, and playing on the emotions of workers' families and the public - Crandell challenges readers to reexamine how we treat some of our most vulnerable fellow citizens. Twenty-Two Cents an Hour forces us to face the reality of this exploitation and builds the framework needed for reform." -- |c Unedited summary from book. | ||
