Description
This document lists the House and Senate conference managers for S. 2475, the Fair Labor Standards Act. Because the House and Senate must pass the exact same bill, a conference committee was used to resolve differences between the versions of the legislation passed by the two chambers. Representative
Mary Norton, who was instrumental in the bill’s passage, was at the top of the list of House conference managers. The Fair Labor Standards Act became law on June 25, 1938, and created a minimum wage and standard work week.
