Marcy Kaptur: “This bill regularizes the workforce, addresses the very serious issues…”

On the recordDecember 11, 2019

This bill regularizes the workforce, addresses the very serious issues of heat illness prevention and decent lodging, and also has other necessary provisions that demand our support. We must address the conditions of these workers. They cannot be preyed upon. I look forward to continuing to work with my colleagues to improve conditions not addressed in this bill. Madam Speaker, I want to thank the chairwoman for her fantastic work, speaking up for some of America's most forgotten workers.
