A lot of people have been asking what Kamala has done so I started doing some research into actions taken during her tenure as a US Senator.  It appears that she's sponsored or cosponsored 164 bills.  I will do my best to read and post her bills.

Senate Bill (SB) 471

"To direct the Occupational Safety and Health Administration to issue an occupational safety and health standard to protect workers from heat-related injuries and illnesses.”
