"Es una atrocidad y una tragedia", dijo el senador Darryl Rouson, D-St. Petersburg, quien presentó el proyecto de ley en el Senado el miércoles.

Florida Democratic lawmakers are proposing statewide heat protections for outdoor workers, months after a Tampa Bay Times investigation found far more Florida workers have died of heat illness than authorities know. “It’s an atrocity, and it’s a tragedy,” said Sen. Darryl Rouson, D-St. Petersburg, who filed the bill in the Senate on Wednesday. “There’s a need to put these types of regulations in place.” Four other Democrats filed a companion bill in the House.

It felt like 100 degrees on the job site by late afternoon. "Truly unbearable," was how Jonathan Baudilio Ramirez Salazar described Florida's weather when he spoke to his wife on the phone the night before. He'd worked one day in the thick July heat as a temporary laborer on a Fort Myers landscaping crew for TruScapes Industries Inc. "Don't go to work tomorrow," his wife told him. "My love, I didn't come here to rest," the 31-year-old said from his hotel.
