Tim Walz awards $126K in taxpayer funds to meatpacker JBS that had kids cleaning processing plant
It’s a meaty issue.
Minnesota Gov. Tim Walz greenlit up to $126,000 in taxpayer-funded job training grants to the notorious international meat processing empire JBS — despite the global juggernaut being mired in a slew of high-profile scandals.
In February 2023, the US Department of Labor found at least 22 children had been unlawfully hired by a cleaning company to scrub JBS’ processing plant in Worthington, Minn., where they worked in hazardous conditions and during graveyard shifts.
JBS later fired the cleaning service.
