House Bill 2127, which takes effect on Sept. 1, will do away with local rules that require water breaks for construction workers. The cities of Austin and Dallas, for example, require 10-minute breaks every four hours. San Antonio officials had been considering a similar ordinance.
“We are human beings who need respect,” Martínez said. “We really need to be allowed to work without problems, without any barriers … Believe me, we are dying inside those buildings when they take away our water and our [break] time.”
I appreciate you trying to explain a perspective, even if it’s possibly “wrong.” We do need to spend time trying to understand why rather than default assuming it’s because they’re awful human beings.
I don’t think the downvotes are deserved as I don’t think you’re shilling for corpo overlords or trolling.
