"Rising temperatures pose a threat to millions of American workers exposed to elements and to kids in schools and seniors in nursing homes without air conditioning and cooling resources", Biden said in a statement. He added that this was a larger problem in disadvantaged communities. This move comes after the record heat of the summer and a heatwave in the Pacific Northwest that took the life of two workers and other climate-related disasters in Louisiana, New York and California.
