The Golden State's largest farm organization wants to defeat a bill in the Legislature that would impose what it believes are onerous new regulations to protect farmworkers from heat.  A bill by Assemblywoman Betsy Butler, D-Marina del Rey, would let laborers sue their employers and their customers if they fail to supply water within 10 feet or shade within 200 feet of workers.  Under the proposal sponsored by United Farm Workers of America, employers found to have forced workers to labor in unsafe conditions would have to pay up to $1 million in restitution if the bill becomes law.  (more) June 14, 2012 Capital Press
