Florida baffles experts by
banning local water break
rules as deadly heat is on
the rise
Apr 19
Sweltering summer heat might
have been more bearable for
outdoor workers in Miami-Dade
County under a proposal that
suggested mandated breaks in
the shade on the hottest days -
but Florida said no.
The county's proposal to
establish heat rules for
workers has been preempted by
a new law: Florida has joined
Texas in banning such local
rules for outdoor workers.
Meanwhile, California,
Colorado, Minnesota, Oregon
and Washington have passed
laws giving more protections
to construction workers who
work in extreme heat.
The law will primarily affect
low-income workers of color,
Guadarrama said: "Currently,
the state legislature has no
interest in protecting workers."

There's a theory out there saying that rightists are too lazy and
witholding water will make them work hard for a change.
Just show us where people were denied water.
In Texas and Alabama they with hold water and even brought back the
whipping post to teach the rightists a lesson if they don't work hard.
"with hold"?
