What the fuck do people not understand? This is really fucking simple: repubs will extract as much value for themselves from society, while they’re alive, with not a concern for the costs to others or the future. That’s what motivates 100% of their shit. That’s why they’ve betrayed America. That’s why they’re cool if kids get shot up. They’re soulless ghouls, utter parasites.

There should be a law that you can't make laws to block laws
Unions are the answer to this #GOP madness.
DeSantis is hoping to ban those too, I'm sure.
In St. Johns County, on the Atlantic shore of Northeast Florida, more than 55% of public school teachers paid their union dues this last year. Despite that, nearly 3,500 teachers are facing the threat of having their union representation revoked. At the same time, in Southwest Florida, only 16% of law enforcement officers of the Charlotte County Sheriff’s Office paid union dues last year. Their union is under absolutely no threat of being decertified.
As always, ACAB.
And an additional WTF for DuhSantis' utter stupidity.
I'm not baffled. Republicans love to punish people, the poorer and not white the better.
Florida has joined Texas in banning such local rules for outdoor workers
How is it every time i hear humans rights being restricted or taken away Texas is always fucking involved?
Man Alabama's been practically righteous lately compared to Arkansas and Tennessee. Oh, and Mississippi. And Louisiana.
We're gonna need a bigger meme.
Missouri is putting in some effort here too
Not even businesses want this, it's just performative cruelty at this point.
Businesses can still follow safety procedures, they just aren’t required to by law.
Often businesses like regulations because then they don't have the pressure of a race to the bottom. Depends on the industry and the regulation obviously
It solves the prisoner's dilemma problem. If my rival doesn't protect workers, he can finish jobs cheaper and then put me out of business, etc
