"The climate crisis is making extreme heat more severe. This summer more than six in 10 Americans endured a multi-day heat wave.

Today, we announced a new interagency response to protect our workers and communities."

"Extreme heat affects millions of workers, including farm, construction, and factory workers. It also disproportionately threatens the lives of our children, seniors, low-income communities, and communities of color."

"This response will include @USDOL, @HHSGov, @EPA, @NOAA, @DHSgov, & @USDA working together to reduce heat-related illness, protect public health, and support the economy."
