    Some context here:

    (1) The bill doesn’t take effect until September 1st, so these deaths are not a result of it.

    (2) While OSHA has very good guidelines on what employers SHOULD do for worker hydration, they do not require it. I other words, OSHA does not say the employers MUST do it.

    I think things will get really bad NEXT summer.
