No one should die of #heatexposure, preventable by taking simple precautions. Yet Obed Azahel Hernandez Perez, a 24-year-old from Mexico, died last month from prolonged heat exposure while harvesting sweet potatoes in Mississippi. If the US had passed a federal heat standard, he may still be alive.
