Agriculture labor laws needs major improvement

My girlfriend currently is working at a chicken farm as a cleaner/driver for workers in the barns. They don't pay any overtime (due to a racist law from the 1930s agriculture doesn't have to pay overtime I guess) and they demand she works far past her scheduled time (off at 5:30 but instead gets off at more like 9:00) and now her manager is requiring her to go in for just 20 minutes on her day off to make a single pick up. No overtime, no compensation, the pay won't even cover gas.
