Last week, the US Department of Agriculture announced sweeping plans to increase slaughter line speeds at pork and poultry plants — a move that could further endanger workers who already process animals at a breakneck pace and suffer high levels of injury.

I'm going to keep this up because it's borderline. Announcing plans is borderline, I probably wouldn't have posted this yet until they "make moves," "relaxed the laws" or similar. Only posts about what the current administration actually does, not talks about doing or are making plans to do. There are plenty of places for that. You started posting while I was on vacation, so I'm going to give this one a break, plus the others weren't like that.

FYI, I'm pretty strict about this place because of the intent behind it. It's a place for only things about what is actually going on and there should be at least a full paragraph (which you did) that explains the article.

Thanks for understanding.

That's fair enough. For next time I will post about the events that are occurring.

Thank you for informing me.

I appreciate you trying to post. If I see that there are a plethora that I have to remove though, I'm going to make it mod only posts. I'm considering it anyway. I apologize that this isn't really a community community. It's not for everyone. This is nothing personal and I really do appreciate your intentions behind posting.
