Thanks, @lizagross.bsky.social, for covering my new Health Affairs article with @jamiemccallum.bsky.social. We found that California's heat standard was associated with a 33% decrease in heat-related deaths among outdoor workers. Likely prevents 34 worker deaths each year. doi.org/10.1377/hlth...

Climate change is killing workers. The fix is simple. Water. Shade. Rest Breaks. Our new Health Affairs study: California's heat standard was associated with a 33% drop in heat-related deaths among outdoor workers. Now it's time for OSHA to adopt a federal heat standard. tinyurl.com/4wejjhkd

Trump's mix of high tariffs and union-busting won't deliver higher wages or new manufacturing jobs for American workers - it will just increase profits for corporations. Check out my new report with @epi.org:

I’m so happy to announce that my book is now published and available open-access! (🧵coming soon, too :)

I wrote about labor unions and American democracy for EPI with @jakemgrumbach.bsky.social & @jamiemccallum.bsky.social. Here's our new post on unions' defense of ballot drop boxes: www.epi.org/blog/decline...

Counties with higher union membership rates were more likely to have ballot drop boxes in the 2022 midterm elections Cool study by @adamdean.bsky.social @jamiemccallum.bsky.social @jakemgrumbach.bsky.social www.epi.org/publication/...

@jbouie.bsky.social: “Republicans...know that organized labor is a key obstacle to dismantling the social safety net. The question is whether Democrats understand that their fortunes are also bound up in the fate of workers.” EPI report finds that unions defend democracy, too: tinyurl.com/2jfkc74a

Worried about voting rights and the 2024 election? Labor unions are vital to defend ballot drop boxes and voting access. 1 point ⬆️ union density ➡️ 9.8% ⬆️ drop boxes. Check of my new EPI report with @jakemgrumbach.bsky.social & @jamiemccallum.bsky.social www.epi.org/publication/...
