Free SpeechNo fault divorce was one of the dumbest things we ever did. Wife gets bored or finds some guy at work and she can walk with the kids and half the stuff. Men get zero protection.

Whatever law they make needs to cover indoor workplaces too. Warehouses, kitchens can get brutally hot even when the outdoor temperature looks fine.

Florida banned cities and counties from making their own workplace heat rules, so apparently the legal limit here is "good luck." A statewide standard would be nice before more workers end up hospitalized over somebody's landscaping schedule.

Can't do a flat cutoff. 95 in the shade isn't 95 in full sun wearing heavy gear. Require water, shade and breaks then set a hard stop when it gets unsafe.

Any rule would need pay protection. Otherwise workers will hide symptoms or keep going because losing half a shift means missing rent. That's capitalism.

Stfu. Communism and socialism would do the same. Capitalism lets you start a competitor that treats workers fairly.

And no retaliation. If the rule depends on them telling their boss they're dizzy, it's already failed. Employees are gonna second guess how they feel to not piss anyone off.
