Protesters took to the streets to march against HB433
Construction and farmworkers in Florida protested against a newly enacted law that prevents cities and counties from implementing their own protections against extreme heat. The law disproportionately impacts Latino workers, who make up a large proportion of outdoor workers.
Imagine how quickly legislators would enact change if the trades unions to include HVAC joined the protest and began striking. You can only sit inside of a 90f building for so long.
Ikr, surely "don't be excessively cruel to the piece-workers who make the agricultural industry price competitive" would be a better strategy? Is this going to end up like brexit where next minute you've got a load of farmers wanting a bailout cos it turns out noone wants to be paid less than minimum wage to get heat stroke picking fruit or whatever?
