Climate change's link to heat waves and Carlee Russell admits hoax: Morning Rundown
NBCMAR 17 2023
Casar could’ve devised something less futile than going just eight hours without a drink. Instead of performing theatrics on the Capitol steps with his extreme-left colleagues, he could’ve been inside the building legislating. This was an attention-seeking waste of time.
Accessibility to water breaks is a serious issue that needs addressing. Even if heatstroke doesn’t kill a worker, it can affect that person’s life well beyond the immediate illness. Casar’s actions were symbolic of a worker’s shift and, just as his past thirst strikes have worked to inspire action, hopefully this one will too.
