On top of its rather lengthy rulemaking process, the Biden administration has pledged a set of direct actions to help reduce the impacts of extreme heat on workers immediately. OSHA will surge enforcement in the investigation of complaints on days that the heat index breaks above 80 degrees Fahrenheit by deploying more inspectors and making sure employers are abiding by the safety standards.

An interactive feature from The Washington Post maps out where migrants live across the United States, highlighting key trends and demographic shifts. Data show that while immigrants are very highly concentrated within traditional urban centers, they increasingly reside in smaller towns and rural areas—trends representing more fundamental changes in migration patterns.

A mayor from each of the five states in America's heartland is making a case for more immigrants in their respective cities to boost their economies and low supplies of labor.
