More workers are dying from #heat. #Texas may make it harder to protect them.

The strikers wanted the city council to require employers to provide drinking water and regular breaks to workers after a survey found that many construction workers were not receiving either, even though temperatures in #Austin have reached as high as 112 degrees F. The campaign was a success — that year, the city council passed an ordinance mandating that construction workers get a 10-minute water break every four hours. In 2015, #Dallas adopted a similar requirement.

But now, E&E News reports that Republican lawmakers in Texas are pushing a #bill that would eliminate these minimal protections that help workers survive on very hot days, which are increasing in number and severity with #climate change.
