Brutal heat wave coming to Southern California

Brutal heat wave coming to Southern California A brutal heat wave was bearing down on Southern California Monday, with temperatures expected to push into triple-digit temperatures as early as Tuesday and continuing through the Labor Day week end. “High pressure will produce a prolonged warming trend with only a minimal marine layer,” according to the NWS. “By midweek very hot conditions will develop with triple-digit heat for many valleys and mountain locations through the Labor Day weekend. This heat may be record-breaking and will likely produce a very high heat illness risk.” Forecasters said the Antelope Valley could see temperatures as high as 113 degrees during the heat wave, while other valley areas could hit 112 and the mountains and inland coastal areas could reach 105. “Drink plenty of fluids, stay in an air-conditioned room, stay out of the sun, and check up on relatives and neighbors,” the NWS urged. Overnight lows will not offer much relief either, staying in the 70s and even in the low 80s in some of the hotter areas.

What about the inmates that are in crowded cells without any air comig into their cells? The Swamp Coolers At The California Institute Foe Women In Corona Only Blow Dirt And Dust.

Why is it ok to house humanes in such in humane conditions?

Profit and Exploitation

Profit and exploitation Today, convict leasing offers significant revenues for prisons. Most wages paid to inmates are garnished by prisons to cover incarceration costs and pay victim restitution programs. In some cases, prisoners see no monetary compensation whatsoever. In 2015 and 2016, the California Prison Industry Authority made over $2 million from its food and agriculture sector. Growers can reap significant revenues, too. Inmates are excluded from federal minimum wage protections, allowing prison systems to lease convicts at a rate below the going labor rate. In Arizona, inmates leased through Arizona Correctional Industries (ACI) receive a wage of $3-$4 per hour before deductions. Meanwhile, the state’s minimum wage for most non-incarcerated farm workers is $11.00/hr. Beyond the unfairness of low wages, inadequate state and federal regulations ensure that agricultural work continues to be onerous. Laborers endure long hours, repetitive motion injuries, temperature and humidity extremes and exposure to caustic and carcinogenic chemicals. For inmates, these circumstances are unlikely to change. US courts have ruled that prisoners are prohibited from organizing for higher wages and working conditions — though strikes have occurred in recent years. Furthermore, inmates are not legally considered employees, which means they are excluded from protection under parts of the 1964 Civil Rights Act, the Equal Pay Act, the Fair Labor Standards Act, the National Labor Relations Act and the Federal Tort Claims Act.
