  • OSHA Sends Draft Emergency Temporary Standard for COVID OMB Review

    OSHA Sends Draft Emergency Temporary Standard for COVID OMB Review

    OSHA sends draft emergency temporary standard for COVID OMB review BY ALEX GANGITANO © istock The Occupational Safety and Health Administration (OSHA) announced on Monday it has sent a draft emergency temporary standard (ETS) on the coronavirus pandemic to the Oice of Management and Budget, defending the extra time the agency took to move on establishing a standard. OSHA, a division of the Department of Labor (DOL), took “the appropriate time” to get the standards right, according to the DOL. President Biden issued an executive order in January on protecting worker health and safety, which called on OSHA to issue an ETS by March 15. “OSHA has been working diligently on its proposal and has taken the appropriate time to work with its science-agency partners, economic agencies, and others in the U.S. government to get this proposed emergency standard right,” a DOL spokesperson said in an email on Monday. Democratic Michigan Reps. Debbie Dingell, Rashida Tlaib and Andy Levin wrote a letter to Biden earlier on Monday calling for ETS implementation as COVID-19 cases in the state are rising again. “What a difference a President Joe Biden and Secretary of Labor Marty Walsh make. I’ve been calling for an emergency temporary standard to protect against COVID-19 for over a year now. I’m glad to see DOL acting to move us closer to issuing the ETS, and POTUS needs to approve it swiftly and get this standard into effect,” Levin told The Hill on Monday following the announcement. Democrats, unions and worker advocates have called for oicial OSHA COVID-19 standards since the onset of the pandemic.

    October 1, 2015 Texas Congressional Republicans Rayburn House Office

    October 1, 2015 Texas Congressional Republicans Rayburn House Office Building United States House of Representatives Washington, D.C. 20515 AN OPEN LETTER TO THE TEXAS REPUBLICAN CONGRESSIONAL HOUSE DELEGATION Dear Representative, Like the rest of the nation, last Friday I was surprised to learn of Speaker of the House John Boehner’s imminent resignation from Congress. As you are aware, Boehner revealed he had originally intended to serve as Speaker for only two terms, but after the stunning grassroots defeat of Majority Leader Eric Cantor, he decided to remain in the position through the end of this year. However, in order to prevent greater damage from further "prolonged leadership turmoil," Boehner changed his plans yet again and will be resigning at the end of October. Millions of voters in Texas and across the nation have been in a state of 'prolonged turmoil' since the election of President Obama in 2008. As evidence of the strong displeasure with the direction the President has taken the country, voters have elected a strong Republican majority in the United States House of Representatives and the United States Senate during the midterm elections of both of his terms. Unfortunately, to their chagrin, little has changed after these sweeping electoral victories. The grassroots—of which I include myself—are extremely frustrated at the lack of action on any number of conservative public policy priorities in D.C. The voters did not elect conservative Republicans in 2010 and 2014 to stand by idly as their leaders engaged in the politics of surrender. Speaker Boehner's resignation is a direct result of the very same grassroots wave that swept him into power.
