Long story short: tell our government to protect workers from heatstroke, and tell local officials to stand strong against professional book-banners. Use the email/petition tools in the following paragraphs to communicate your will.
More Perfect Union helps you tell our Department of Labor to implement its workplace heat standard with a quickness. Heatstroke workplace deaths do tend to make the news, as you know, and while farmworkers may feel the need for these standards more acutely than most of us, working, as they do, in 100-degree heat without adequate water breaks, Jesus Mary and Joseph I've put up with excessive heat at my job, and I wouldn't want to give any employers any ideas. Corporations need to stop using us as workjars they way they use us as moneyjars. But all they'll do is use us, until we make them stop, using our government as our tool.
Civic Shout helps you tell your local elected officials to stop placating book banners. Even the Washington Post tells us that 11 people filed 60% of all book challenges during the book-banning heyday of 2021-22, and that fact alone should tell us that the book-banning movement is horseshit. Enough with the concern trolling about TEH KIDZ!!!! already. We won't put a permanent end to this particular right-wing tantrum without getting good Americans back on school boards, but we can surely lend some steel to the spine of local elected officials by communicating our will – a will they'll surely understand, since we still tend to associate book banning with Nazi Germany.
