Why do I get the feeling this is about to become another partisan topic?
Already has. See Florida HB 433. Rights mustn’t get in the way of costs and profits.
The Florida laws will hurt undocumented migrants the most.
Which is to say, don’t forget the racism as a motivation.
It already is. A bunch of red states states are denying climate change, forbidding consideration of climate change in zoning and development decisions, removing references from government documents, forbidding it from getting taught in school, etc.
This particular article is probably in reference to Florida recently passing a law saying that employers are not required to give outside workers rest or water breaks in the heat.
Desantis is not human.
Both Florida and Texas were, in the not-very-distant past, within reach of the Democrats and were slept turning bluer. The Republicans in both Florida and Texas know exactly what they’re doing: preserving those precious, precious electoral college votes for the Republicans. Anything else is a bonus, a distraction for the left, or both.
Yeah, that is why laws were created to try and counter that.
Then Republicans overturned them in pursuit of evil.
"My grandpa got lung cancer from the asbestos factory and died and he was fine with it. People were tougher back then. Nobody wants to die anymore!"
What a radical take
i’m sorry to report this is already a thing in Texas. in a state where dying from heat is a thing.
