Opinion | The GOP is trying to shove a disastrous provision into the newest coronavirus aid bill that would make it almost impossible for workers to fight back against their employers if they catch COVID-19 on the job. By Ed Mierzwinski of uspirg

to all claims made by employees against their employers — including those with clear merit. For an organization playing the long game, the pandemic simply provides its latest cover story. It wants to use the anxiety that we all share today to push through a groundbreaking weakening of the law.

"The unprecedented transmissibility of this virus makes it difficult, if not impossible, to pin down the source of any individual's contact with the virus," he said. "In the absence of hard proof of causation, cases will not be filed and lawyers, who get paid only if they win, will be reticent to even consider these cases."

For companies, maintaining this possibility of litigation shouldn't cause fear. The reason: As is the case with any lawsuit, businesses may have defenses that will prevail in court. That was true before the current crisis and remains true today.

Trump signs 4 executive actions on coronavirus economic relief - Business InsiderBusiness Insider is a fast-growing business site with deep financial, media, tech, and other industry verticals. Launched in 2007, the site is now the largest business news site on the web. TO HIM if he ''signs'' something, he has 'worked'..... and that is a truth..... “But it's unclear whether Trump has the authority to take any of these actions, since Congress holds spending power. A court battle is likely.” It is not unclear - this moron wannabe dictator doesn’t understand how government works. This article is garbage. Corporate laughing to the bank on the 1st stimulus bill lol
