*New Bill Would Protect Workers Who Walk Off the Job Because of … Disasters.*

It starts with the right to stop working or flee the workplace for safety from a disaster, without being fired or punished for doing so.

The bill refers earthquakes and tornadoes as "climate disasters", which is certainly erroneous for earthquakes and perhaps also for tornadoes. It is right to include those disasters in legal protection for workers' safety, but the law should use some other name for them all, one that isn't flat-out incorrect.
