Supreme Court Ruling Expands Parental Rights. On April 9, 1923, the US Supreme Court delivered a landmark decision in Adkins v. Children's Hospital, a case that challenged the District of Columbia's minimum wage law for women and minors. The court ultimately ruled in favor of the plaintiffs, striking down the law as unconstitutional. This decision marked a significant milestone in the ongoing debate over government regulation of the workplace and the rights of employers and employees, with far-reaching implications for labor laws and parental rights.
