Heat kills more American workers than any other weather hazard, and the deaths are almost boringly preventable: water, shade, a rest break, and a few days to acclimate before a new hire spends August on a roof. OSHA has spent years building exactly that standard. Congress is now being asked to block it before it takes effect — a vote to keep the current rule, which is no rule, which is why a warehouse can legally hit a hundred degrees and a farmworker's death gets written up as bad luck. No business model should depend on a person not being allowed to stop for water. Resistbot is asking the candidates on your 2026 ballot to reject any bill blocking the federal heat standard, and to finalize, fund, and enforce it: water, shade, rest, and acclimatization, in writing.
