[Sosfbay-discuss] Farm Regulations

[Wes Rolley]

*Send your e-mail to win permanent heat regulations for farm workers! 
<http://www.ufwaction.org/campaign/heatregs42006/5kesie497wm5ej?>*

We have written to you about the issue of heat regulations many times 
before.  Thousands of supporters responded and sent e-mails to help us 
prevent further tragedies in the fields.

*These temporary heat regulations are set to expire on April 21,* and we 
again need your help 
<http://www.ufwaction.org/campaign/heatregs42006/5kesie497wm5ej?> to 
protect farm workers. Please *urge CalOSHA to make these vital 
regulations permanent 
<http://www.ufwaction.org/campaign/heatregs42006/5kesie497wm5ej?> when 
they meet on April 20.*  Last summer six Central Valley farm workers 
died due to extreme heat. We can never let this happen again.  Some of 
these deaths occurred after management ordered work speed-ups when 
temperatures were above 100 degrees. We asked Gov. Schwarzenegger for 
assistance.   He responded by issuing the nation’s first temporary 
emergency heat regulation in the nation.
 
*Please send your e-mail today 
<http://www.ufwaction.org/campaign/heatregs42006/5kesie497wm5ej?> 
calling on Cal-OSHA, the state work safety agency, to adopt a permanent 
rule to save workers’ lives.*
