The Supreme Court's ruling in Bailey v. Drexel Furniture Company voided restrictions on child labor, ruling that the 1919 Child Labor Tax Law was an unconstitutional attempt by Congress to penalize employers using child labor. This decision was based on the premise that the law interfered with states' rights to regulate labor, marking a significant moment in the Court's interpretation of the Commerce Clause and the use of taxation powers.
