Trump's Latest Attack on Workers:
*Cut min wage & overtime protections for home healthcare workers
*Allow submin wage for workers with cognitive disabilities
*Remove protections for seasonal immigrant farm workers
*Exempt many workplaces from OSHA safety rules

"The U.S. Department of Labor is aiming to rewrite or repeal more than 60 'obsolete' workplace regulations, ranging from minimum wage requirements for home health care workers and people with disabilities to standards governing exposure to harmful substances."
"Critics say the proposals would put workers at greater risk of harm, with women and members of minority groups bearing a disproportionate impact."
