Trump Orders Meat Plants to Stay Open as Worker Deaths from Coronavirus Rise

The GOP death cult at work:

Trump directed Agriculture Secretary Sonny Perdue to "take all appropriate action" to ensure that meat companies continue operating under guidance from the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention and the Occupational Safety and Health Administration. The order did not detail additional precautions companies should take to protect workers, which has led to worries among unions and other worker groups. The Agriculture Department has deferred to the CDC and OSHA instead of issuing its own rules. OSHA, however, has not imposed mandatory safety rules and instead only issued recommendations.

Motherfucking assholes.
