Will Bardwell With More On Wicker And OSHA

Will Bardwell comes up with a possible explanation for why Congressman Wicker would vote against testing respirators which keep workers healthy.
So where do campaign donations turn into efforts to prevent annual fit tests on respirator equipment? Right at about the point where health care companies tally their profit margins in their annual reports. Health care providers all across the country received OSHA funds, but those funds don't come from a bottomless well, after all. And as long as health care companies get to play around with federal funds, they most certainly don't want to squander that money on something as petty as worker safety (nevermind the fact that it's OSHA's very purpose for existing).
