Workers Roast as Federal Heat Standard Languishes Workers are overheating on the job, even in blue states. A proposed federal rule could help—but the Trump administration might abandon it.

As a federal heat rule becomes ever more unlikely, even in the best-case scenario #workers would still have to wait two years for #HeatProtections to go into effect.

But workers can’t wait for #HeatJustice. Learn why @prospect.org: prospect.org/labor/2025-0...

As temperatures rise, so does the risk for millions of workers. It’s time to demand real protections: water, shade, rest — and a system that values people over profit.
