Jan. 18, 2026 | WORKPLACE SAFETY | Under immense pressure from working people, the Trump administration has reversed its dangerous cuts to the National Institute for Occupational Safety and Health (NIOSH). This is a major victory for worker safety, and it belongs to all of us. In April, NIOSH faced devastating cuts impacting nearly 90% of the agency’s staff, threatening to dismantle the only federal agency dedicated to groundbreaking safety research. It was one of the largest attacks on worker safety in U.S. history. But the labor movement and working people persisted, and we were victorious. IATSE
