I currently live in Atlanta, GA and do not get any breaks during my 14 hours at work. I repeatedly complain to my boss, but my schedule is not changed. What authority can I file a complaint with in order to get this situation resolved?

No one unless you are in a union.
SO either
1) Get a union at work
2) quit
3) Take your break and then sue when you are fired over it. That you can do...

Are you under union. Union officials have being known to do wonders for their members. You can also write a letter to the HR department detailing all this. I hope in your contract it is not stated that you need to work 14 hours straight.

Your state's department of labor.
Or maybe OSHA or national dept. of labor.
Other than starting a union, though, that may take a while.

Contact the Department of Labor. That is illegal.
