Farm work has long been excluded from federal protections. In fact, during the fight to pass the New Deal there were two types of work specifically excluded from the reforms passed (like social security). This was at the insistence of Representatives and Senators from Southern states. Anyone want to guess what color skin most of those workers had at the time?
