Protesters took to the streets to march against HB433
Construction and farmworkers in Florida protested against a newly enacted law that prevents cities and counties from implementing their own protections against extreme heat. The law disproportionately impacts Latino workers, who make up a large proportion of outdoor workers.
All the double negatives make the headline a challenge to parse, but they are against the legislation because it would make it illegal for local authorities to implement basic safeguards for people who work outside. They want the safeguards.
