Timothy J. Barber Act
This bill requires the Secretary of Labor to study how effectively the Occupational Safety and Health Administration (OSHA) spends funds on technical assistance for heat-related illness prevention, specifically in states with cooler climates. The study must assess spending effectiveness at national and regional levels and suggest improvements. The Secretary must submit a report with findings and recommendations to Congress within 180 days of the bill's enactment. It does not change existing laws but mandates a review of current OSHA spending practices.
