Um OSHA already demands water breaks…so the workers can sue if the company isn’t following the OSHA safe work practices.
Farm workers should strike indefinitely. Must be given good health care and a higher wage and rights.
Why work for a company or boss that doesn't accommodate basic health needs, they all need to quit and let the crops rot... that's the only right that the politicians can't mandate...wage slaves is what most American Corporations are looking for... quit ‼️
Exactly go work at McDonald's take personal responsibility and find work that suits u
I personally refuse to work anywhere that has "diversity" training because I'm not taking part in any of that clown ran circus 😂
@gdiaz8827 Hopefully your not eating any fruits or veggies picked .
Farm laborers are often not citizens so they have zero voice which is exactly why these industries hire them… they are desperate enough to do the hard work for very little pay.
Yet they come all the way over here Rather than work near their homes or even countries closer to their homes. Because it's still better here.
@@julianvega2677- Desperate people do desperate things. There are people who try to flee to different countries that have a huge chance of dying. If you didn’t know, Diane isn’t better. People are willing to take risks. And sometimes the climate is different in countries as well. Letting someone take a little water break is not gonna be going soft. So for anybody to not want to have people take water breaks seems to be the heights of cruelty. And guess what, in case you don’t care about people that have darker skin, this also applies to us Europeans that work outside in construction and stuff.
The workers here don’t have a voice WE NEED HELP DOWN HERE‼️🇺🇸
@iMatti00 they are supposed to go to the nearest sanctuary country not come here expecting royal treatment at 5 star hotels
@@iMatti00 I've never needed a water break and I've spent 16 hour days, winter or summer, 40 below or 100 degrees above zero, working outside. It's called coming to work prepared for work. Not hard to carry a little liquid so someone doesn't have to inconvenience the entire staff by going for a drink every 40 minutes. It's called work, not daycare.
Can you show us the actual bill instead of your interpretation of it ? That would be very helpful , I see you left that out.
Easier to lie about DeSantis this way
Yes, always go to the source.
It's not hard to google.
Exactly!! Devil is in the details
Sounds like you can't handle the truth.
Both sides seem to agree on the intent.
Outside workers should pick a 48 hour period and nobody go to work. Tell Robby to go pick his own veggies
Nobody wants to work for such a company, they don’t have a options
Robbie isn't a cruel human being, he just never grew out of his 20 year old libertarian phase. I used to read Von Moses, Rothbard and the Austrian school Libertarian economic thought as a college freshman. Then I got a job.
Read the actual law. It stops LOCAL governments from enacting unnecessary EXTRA laws above the already adequate state laws
@@derrygreen848 Since workers are dying under the state laws, the state laws don't seem to be adequate.
@@derrygreen848 billionaire simp
@@norman_5623The laws are adequate, but employers who hire illegals are not following the laws already. You think they're going to take forged green cards, but they're going to follow OSHA? And you think illegals are going to report their employers?
At no point was any part of the bill shown , so this is all opinion
Oh like fox network.
They never show it. Go look it up
Just provide the water. People will bring there own water bottles.
I work in a 85 to 100 degree shop. 12 hrs a day... Everyday. Ya gotta drink water.
People bring there own bottles. Breaks are used to eat and drink coffee the bottle can be attached to you to drink water all day long as needed.
nuhhuhh itl result in deaths either way, ron desa+an knows that and doesn't care because he's a good ol christian
...*their...
I've worked concession work for 20 years now and my boss never gave me water and I haven't been with one company over the years. I live in the high Desert n.m.
OSHA still requires employees have access to water despite DeSantis stopping city governments to make a whole pile of conflicting rules.
Robby was clearly born upper class and have never been forced to work a brutal job.
Everytime I see Robby, I think of Leonardo DiCaprio playing Jordan Belfort in Wolf of Wall Street, wearing the Polo shirt and hoisting the glass of champagne on his yacht.
I did roofing for a decade, and what he said is correct. If you need someone to hold your hand and remind you to take your mandatory breaks, then whatever happens is on you. Every company for the most part is subject to osha, therefore your employer should have their Its The Law poster in the office and should have directed you to it at some point. Its up to you to read and understand what your rights are when it comes to safety.
Robbie and Bri take turns on who gets to be wrong on a segment.
@@bmass0828 Yeah, I used to work as a land surveyor. I think this is one that just 'sounds bad' to people more than is some kind of evil thing. Bri even noted it was to create consistency as opposed to confusing or contradicting ordinances. What exactly is 'protection from the heat and sun"? If everyone quits working when the sun comes out, nothing is going to get done. And if we continue to work when the sun is out . . . it's gonna be fine.
This is the second most likely. Overwhelmingly, people like Bobby are actually people who came from lower class situations and got lucky...they now look down on people who didn't make it with contempt because "If I could make it why can't they?"
These are the small business owners in small towns who own a lawn car or plumbing business or whatever. The rich have convinced them that their neighbors below them are the enemy.
The Latins like Desantis so that’s what the working class Latins gets. You get the leadership you deserve!!!
Wow! I was wondering how Robbie would excuse this. Apparently, a destitute, desperate person doesn't need to eat! They can shop around for just the right employer while they starve to death.
So essentially, Robbie's position is:
What's more important - water or food?
And just yesterday some fool called Bri wicked!
You can’t deny employees water. Regulations already exist.
This Guy and DeSantis, shows the heartlessness of the GOP. Some of you people out here don't know you are a victim, siding with these people. Wait until they come after you and your family to give big business more money.
People of Florida voted for him, you get what you voted for. Employers need to be careful allowing this kind of abuse, guns are easy to get.
Bruh, the fact Republicans are justifying this is crazy😂😂
@@ThisIsMyHandle333 Its like you screeching lefties have never heard of osha before.

I've worked years in landscaping. Carry a bottle of water and wear a hat. No one is going to stop anyone from taking a swig of water and then getting back to work. Problem solved. It's not complicated
@The_Adam_Smith_Simp what does effectively lowering minimum wage and stripping heat protection from workers have to do with economics? I often wonder how people like you are capable of wiping themselves
@@jermainemyrn19 If someone like me can’t wipe myself then I wonder about the things you are not capable of.
There is an entire field of economics surrounding those very topics, it is called “labor economics”.
Congratulations, you now know the concept of “labor economics”.
Read the actual language of the bill! All it says is that LOCAL governments cannot enact any crazy additional heat laws than the state already provides. The state is saying, what we provide is 100% protections, local governments cannot require 250% protection.
The local governments are saying, your laws don't work, they're not 100% protection, people are dying, we want to stop our workers from dying.
I thought Republicans were for "small government"
Thank you! That makes more sense.
If there is one thing that local governments should not be prevented from doing is trying to help its citizens/ residents deal with the heat.
A hurricane can come through and flatten a hundred homes and it might not be enough workers now because they've left the state or worse dead.
“100% protections” is laughable framing. They passed this because the state is super majority GOP run. Those protections are pretty weak which is why 20 year olds are dying.
Robby needs to wear a sweater everyday that simply says, "Not my problem; I don't care."
That's legitimately describes most of his commentary and general posture about any story concerning the wellbeing of the public at large.
Because OSHA is a thing already that mandates these things for you. All people have to do is read the paperwork your company gives you upon hiring, or go to the Its the Law poster that should be posted in a public common area and read it. Its not on Tina from Hr to remind you to drink water, take breaks, and to get out of the sun if you're working in extreme heat. Its more like, why can't people read, and why are people not aware there is already a thing in place to protect you. Maybe he's just tired of uniformed people doing the bare min and expecting everything in return.
@@bmass0828 Yes, I'm sure they have that OSHA poster hung up clear as day on the biggest cornstalk they could find.
@@TheNewHope2010 Being a smart mouth doesn't change that they would still fall under federal osha laws. In fact, let me do something for you.
After its investigation, OSHA cited McNeill Labor with one serious violation for exposing workers to hazards associated with high ambient heat while working in direct sunlight. Federal investigators also found that the employer did not report the worker’s hospitalization or eventual death, both of which the law requires be reported
Looks like if someone had reported him using existing laws, this could have been prevented. Maybe know your rights instead of popping off the cusp.
@@bmass0828 Being a failure at reading comprehension doesn't change what I said.
Did at any point I deny that it would fall under OSHA??? That would be a "No", Forrest!
@@TheNewHope2010 Thanks for admitting you failed that part of your education, Jennay with the aids.
You implied it. Whilst being a smart mouth, and not knowing there is already an agency in place for this sort of thing. An alarming amount of you seem not to know.
Shouldn't this be considered a crime against humanity. Who is this politician representing?? Because he is certainly not representing the people, the working class. How was this allowed to happen??
What are you talking about? The bill simply says that a city or county cannot enact regulations that differ from state or federal regulations.
RUclips keeps deleting my comments
Rond DeSantis never has wavered in his attitudes. He was involved in torturing prisoners at Guantanamo.
He’s a psychopath
I AM DONE WITH THE GOP!!!!!!
Universal Studios also lobbied for this bill. Many of their employees work outside in the hot heat. It's not just farm workers. The rising knows this.
Robby's commentary always boils down to : "I don't care about human suffering, and neither should anyone else.. because free market.. blah blah blah"
Or, is it that he's tired of having to discuss these things because seemingly an alarming number of you folks don't know about osha. A governmental body whos sole purpose is to provide those exact protections to you. Maybe be smarter than your comment.
@@bmass0828 You're a libertarian spamming the comments about the wonderful work of a regulatory agency. Can't get much more idiotic than that.
From Bri's explanation sounds like they were trying to take advantage of a random tragedy to shoe horn in pay related regulations.
I worked construction many years, the idea that it's your boss's fault if you don't drink enough water is ridiculous.
Robby is simply not being manipulated in hurting those very workers (of which I was one) bc 1 person wasn't smart enough to take care of themself.
Completely disagree. I think he see government as the main reason for human suffering. With all these government agencies you would think things would work great. But they don't. They are inefficient and if you are able to keep your $ he thinks you know how to spend your $ wiser than the government.
@stos45 ...Well if that's what he thinks let me assure you that he is dumb.. There's no such thing as a perfect government, but citizens can't just throw up their hands and refuse to demand competency from goverment institutions.
The story being reported on is about farm workers suffering because their industry isn't properly regulated... That inadequacy won't magically be solved by just chanting "free Market" with your eyes closed...
Family sue the company not the Gov't...

i see why Bri be talking most of the time Robbie just be there 🤣
If You can Not follow USA,s laws do Not Come HERE! Is the Hill for truth?
I'll explain it to you Bri even though you're supposed to be smarter than me. The Democrats went so crazy and fascist, that the Republicans became the lesser evil in spite of these draconian, awful policies. Democrats don't really fight these anti-labor things (they just voted to break a rail strike) so who exactly are people supposed to vote for that actually supports workers? There is no party or faction the materially supports workers. Your side gives lip service, and no substantial gains along with excessive regulations that hurt us. Unfortunately, Robbie the upperclass fake libertarian is right in this case. Our only power is to sit down and say no I won't work for you, but we need mutual aid in place to accomplish that.
I should add that I'm coming at this from the perspective that the both parties are fascist, we lost the class war and need to acknowledge that and start from where we're at.
This is why I love to have Robby on the program. He does a beautiful job of giving us the classic, right-wing, Milton Friedman arguments (or pretexts) for a free market. And Bri comes out with the perfect arguments against them (which you can use the next time you run into a conservative). Every progressive economics teacher would like to have a student like Robby in his class.

Robbie has never worked a day in his life, so he never understands, real people who work need protection from greedy emplyers.
De Santis is great for the rich he does not seem to care anything for the ¨working class¨, we saw this in the pandemic when it seemed that many got stiffed out from their unemployment benefit and left to die. Unfortunately for him their is a God who is much more powerful then him and he kept people alive.
OK Robbie. This is why your rich libertarian friends want open borders. As they make harsh and lower paying labor conditions, they will replace the American worker with a migrant. Good for business and their economy.
You can implement slavery conditions without calling slaves or slaveowners. Is de Santis a "good Christian"?
I thought these were employees. Are they not paying them? Did they capture then and put them on a chain with those things around their necks? I think I missed a big part of this story.

I've worked years in landscaping. Carry a bottle of water and wear a hat. No one is going to stop anyone from taking a swig of water and then getting back to work. Problem solved. People are just getting emotionally manipulated by a headline and a tragedy where common sense precautions were not taken.
My opinion, the government shouldn't have anything to do with it. It starts with the employees. No one can stop you from taking a break, getting water or having protections in place. Sonetimes you have to make your own conditions. Companies will only get away with what the majority allow them to get away with. Refuse to work if they make a fuss about breaks. Government intervention is unnecessary. Unified opposition is.
Plus, we already have federal laws in place.

No. I need the government and my employer to monitor my food and water intake at all times! 😉
disdain for the poor, AGAIN 🤬
Why does Robby sound like he’s a rich elite drinking his bitters
It’s a good question I was an A/C service technician and the charge to the customer was $65 dollars an hour in Florida at the time, which was what a service technician got in a Union. I’ve been on Jobs where the guy sweeping the floor made more than me plus retirement benefits.
But groceries are so high now I rarely buy fruits and vegetables or meat. If unionized I think people like me on S.S. would starve. The only thing that saved me is I bought a home in Florida when it was reasonable. If not I would starve now. I would never have moved here if not for the low cost of housing at the time.
Robbie's "whatever" air is frustrating. I don't know why he is there sometimes. Bri spouts epically flawed logic and assumes negative motivations in her discussion... and Robbie just sits there with an "Eh why should we care about this..." demeanor. Engage, Robbie!
Despite his attempts at parroting in the mirror "how to fake a sense of humanity ", Robbie has FAILED (like usual)
More bureaucracy and government interferance doesn't equal better worker protection...it just guarantees higher taxes, higher costs and consequently, lower income conditions.
Perfectly demonstrates how libertarians will readily implement corporate feudalism if it means protecting their silly noninterventionist principles
We already have laws and protections. We don’t need to add more.
This is sick. I dare desatan to just stand in the sun for 8 hours to see what it’s like!
If you stand in the sun for 8 straight hours without drinking water, or taking a break, that is on you. You are entitled to those breaks, because they are already law. There are notices and vocal reminders everywhere to stay hydrated and not to exert yourself in extreme heat. Its not the governments job to remind you to be a mature adult and mandate how you act whilst working.
@@bmass0828you know darn well that if it’s not required, management won’t actually give the time to do it

@@bmass0828The Issue Is Not About The Government Needing To Remind People To Drink Water...
@@jayware4219 Its not their job to baby sit you. They also have a job to do. Every job is subject to OSHA regulations that should be posted in a common area for all to see. Meaning you getting breaks is mandatory. It is YOUR responsibility to monitor your body and know what is going on with it as well as knowing your workers rights.
Robbie is so young an naive, he tries to fit everything around a libertarian ideology but life is more nuanced. Bri always sounds like she has more life experience.
Yeah, nuanced as in osha exists and too many people are too ignorant to know that you already have an organization in charge of safety and health that grants you mandatory breaks amongst other things.. Just because you need someone to hold your hand doesn't make his position less valid.
What about me? I'm more experience than both of them not only in years, but I have actually had an outdoor job. And I agree with Robbie. How does Bri's indoor job trump Robbie's indoor job?

Robby Suave constantly acts like a spoiled teenager that didn't get his Ferrari for his 16th birthday 💩👀
Libertarian
Yeah, I’m a in construction here in Florida. We take care of our guys. The narrative that labors are being denied water is just ridiculous. Because if you don’t take care of them, they’re gonna pass out on the job and you’re going to lose money. You guys are just assuming that status quo is draconian and it’s not. We have ice water, electrolyte powder, ice blankets for emergencies. This law would be completely unnecessary if it weren’t for the county level officials (none of whom have ever worked a labor job) demanding total control of construction sites and instituting rules that are crazy & counterproductive.
So, choosing to take a job means that you accept all the terms of that job. THEREFORE, any union employer can AGREE to a union contract that makes being in the union part of the terms of that job. Correct, creepy blond guy?
Back to pre industrial revolution work safety. That's exactly what conservatives want to see and attacking worker's safety is a top priority of conservative political parties. Considering Florida relies HEAVILY on immigrant laborers this stunt by DeSantis is targeted towards immigrant labor and minimum wage workers.
As someone whos worked outside in Florida most of my adult life, this kind of legislation pisses me off. One thing we keed to be mindful of though, is this doesnt prevent federal or state regulations from being enforced. Those regulations are pretty generous though. Framing this like "all workers are now completely helpless if they work outside" is false. We have the same protections we've always had, but this is (incorrectly IMO) not allowong local municipalities to increase those protections.
The world is getting more cruel by the day. Analysis of this issue should go beyond just saying yes it’s bad and I don’t think they should have done that. The 29 year old was a human being with family that obviously misses him.
Pick your own MAGA oranges.
Desantis has only 2 choices when the legistature passes a bill: sign (or don't sign for a number of days) or veto. If you blame him for all legislation, then why not credit him with creating the Free State of Florida?
If there illegal immigrants who cares😅😅😅😅
Robbie will defend any cruel position
Yep, the "free marketplace" is "cruel" but because it is the "free marketplace" who am I to judge? - every libertarian who thinks they have an above average understanding of policy
It's a sane position
YEah, because osha isn't a thing. Tell us how he's the monster, when it is on you, and don't read either the paper work, or the osha poster that tells you your rights and all about mandatory breaks.

Surely it's up to workers wear mask protection or not
If you don’t like it, go to another state or job, it’s not slavery folks
In the military, once treated for heatstroke, this becomes a permanent record and leadership must monitor the soldier's health. Robbie wouldn't last a morning doing manual labor and parrots anti-Christian values of caring for his brother.
The problem is there's too many Robbys voting. Never worked to exhaustion in his life, contracturally protected from breaking a sweat.
At ge.. in the 40s the workers flipped over the management's cars fought the police and shut down the factory.
What happens when all the corporations decide to band together and come up with brutal working conditions what can the workers do then, just not work and not eat! Government’s job is to protect the workers from harm, yes it has to be reasonable but asking not to die on a job sounds fairly reasonable to me!
We already have federal laws. Please educate yourself.
DeSantis certainly has Judge Gorsuch on his side. He backed a trucking company that fired a driver because he didn't want to freeze to death. The driver won, and he lived, too.
It sounds like the laws already in place protected the worker and the system worked. So, what’s the problem?
@@AnaLucia-wy2ii If you can't see what the problem of a Supreme Court judge having backed a company that instructed a driver to die with his load, then you are part of the problem.
Workers don't have enough rights in Florida and I can attest to that,Florida is all about the large business owners
So you think less jobs and more unemployment would be better?
Yeah, unemployment is sooo much better for the common man.
No one in the comments section read the bill.
I just don’t understand how someone is allowed to make new laws that goes against federal laws and established rules.
The bill simple states that the individual companies need to comply with OSHA mandates ALREADY in place, to provide water, breaks and shade etc as needed along with other basic common sense work schedules.
It took some digging but I
found the actual bill online, it has nothing to do with withholding water from anyone, think about it….what possible good would it do to withhold water from someone you have working for you ? Making them suffering on the job and not able to do the work? That makes no sense at all. Why would anyone do that and more importantly what does DeSantis or anyone have to GAIN from proposing something like that? I think you just want subscribers to pay your RUclips dollars.
Well, Brie, this is the way things work in a “capitalist democracy,” which is a system of democracy (and socialism) for capitalists, wherein the function of law is to protect private property (i.e., capital) from the masses, who are workers: employed (i.e., used) as tools of their employers, the wealthiest and most powerful of whom do the same thing with the rest of the world, aka imperialism.
Brianna was saying employers should be caretakers and providers too, like charities, even though she didn't explicitly say it. hahahaha!
Brie is rarely right. This one is an exception.
Robert is a man with soft hands speaking on issues of men with rough hands
But men with rough hands keep voting for him.
@@mE-zx7ptNobody out here voting for Robbie.
Robby is intelligent enough to understand that laws already exist and that you don’t need to add more. It’s not an issue of the roughness or softness of hands. It’s just reading comprehension and knowledge and common sense. It’s also about being driven by logic and reason instead of emotion.
what some of the commentors along with Robbie don't seem to understand is that water is probably being denied under duress most times, aka lose your job if I find you doing anything else but work. Of course, I wouldn't expect a set of people who never experience anything wrong because they are more than likely the perp more than they are not, to understand these things. If a company will hire a worker illegally, they'll probably deny water too. I'm sure this law is based in punishment of illegals...as usual the far right shoots itself in the foot. This definitely will make Desantis revered and the local economy boom!
I've worked years in landscaping. They didn't carry a water bottle with them to work and wear a hat. No one is stopping anyone from carrying a water bottle.

Well, its hard to argue that particular point when Desantis won re-election in 2022 by almost 20 points in a former swing state. However, I think any workers should be granted the necessary bathroom/water/meal breaks... This is basic governing 101.
BS
I got a feeling that folks on here dont know that Florida also doesnt protect for lunch meals, yet employers provide it. This is probably going to be another nothing burger but makes headlines because DeSatan bad. Companies understand that if they don't have employees they go out of business and have to provide certain things that society has agreed are needed, without government protection. The free market will decide.
Many employees prefer not having lunch break laws since most lunch breaks are unpaid. They would rather eat a sandwich during a 15 minute paid break than be required to take a 30 minute unpaid lunch break. Lunch breaks are how the 8 hour day became a 9 hour day. Some people prefer it, some don’t.
@@danamarie8718 I'm the same way. I don't care for lunch breaks and would rather work through them and I do. Some of my employees prefer to not lunch either and let them work though it. If it's a mutual agreement then that's what it should be.
@@EndCorporateWelfare Agree. The problem is that if a state or municipality has a mandatory lunch break law, then the employer has to make you take it or they are violating the law. Mutual agreement, as you said, makes the most sense. Sounds like you are a reasonable boss.
@@EndCorporateWelfare I worked for a company that had a 9 hour day, with an hour for lunch. It was an office job and almost everyone was salaried.

I could have sat there and read a book for an hour, but it seemed like a waste of time. My hard work was noticed and I often received good bonuses, raises and promotions. If I were required to take the break both the company and I would have lost out.
@@danamarie8718 appreciate that. It's better to have the flexibility of choice than it to be mandatory like you said. Of course if they want a break they get it. Some days they need it and they'll come to me to let me know they're taking it, and of course without questions they take it.

Agriculture workers aren't included in the Fair Labor Standards Act either so pretty much they can be treated as dirt and they have no recourse
Agricultural workers are not excluded from FLSA. They are also covered under OSHA. Protections may/ may not be adequate, but they are covered.
Where is OSHA on this subject?
Don't worry the robots will be doing these jobs soon freeing the American worker to pursue more creative careers, or go hungry.
