Question 8 • FL-2100310-United States History A

Which of these laws would Eugene Debs have been most likely to support?

Answer
A
limiting the number of times a person can run for president
B
restricting child labor to children over 12 years of age
C
giving business owners the legal right to outlaw unions
D
allowing women to vote only in national elections

Explanation

Eugene Debs was a labor leader and socialist who supported reforms to protect workers, including children. A law restricting child labor so that children had to be over 12 would offer some protection to young workers. The other choices either do not address workers’ welfare or would weaken workers’ rights by letting owners outlaw unions.
