Climate change is killing workers. The fix is simple. Water. Shade. Rest Breaks. Our new Health Affairs study: California's heat standard was associated with a 33% drop in heat-related deaths among outdoor workers. Now it's time for OSHA to adopt a federal heat standard. tinyurl.com/4wejjhkd

Worried about voting rights and the 2024 election? Labor unions are vital to defend ballot drop boxes and voting access. 1 point ⬆️ union density ➡️ 9.8% ⬆️ drop boxes. Check of my new EPI report with @jakemgrumbach.bsky.social & @jamiemccallum.bsky.social www.epi.org/publication/...
