I applaud this, it just makes me sad thinking other industries don't have similar leverage to get fair compensation for their labor. The studios were happy to wait our the writers because they had the funds to do so and the writers largely didn't. They can't play chicken with sag-aftra though, and they know that so they're smearing them trying to point to other parts of the industry this'll harm as if this whole thing wasn't started by their (the studio's) greed....but yeah what's an amazon warehouse worker to lean on, or uber/lyft drivers when faced with obvious corporate greed? le sigh

Well I'll be damned. Super interested to see how they implement this since they operate across all states. So not only dealing with the fact that there's still a federal ban on marijuana (my wife's a licensed vet and is going through her DEA licensing for distribution of controlled again and found out under no circumstances is she allowed to be prescribed medical marijuana), but also the fact that some states haven't even passed their own decriminalization.

Will it just be "you might get arrested, but you won't be banned from playing football?" And if they do random tests, and someone tests positive and is in a state where it is criminal, do they have to reveal the identity of the positive result to the state?

Seriously this, I mean there won't really be places that can comply with this. Yeah Texas has some of the highest rates of heat related deaths, they also have some of the hotest hots in the country. Taking the requirement away is just malicious on Abbott's part, but it likely won't change anything. My wife worked as a vet for the USDA in Waco for 2-3 years and those cutting floors at the meat processing plants frequently got to 120f during the high summer months. They have a couple of box fans, and water literally everywhere and that's it. This is an article hitting on a problem, but from the wrong direction.

Probably not? the migrant paths are a lot more limited now than they used to be i think.
