Support federal legislation or OSHA standards requiring strong violence prevention programs in hospitals and healthcare facilities.
Occurrences
Evidence
Congress.gov says H.R.2663 would require the Department of Labor to issue an interim occupational safety and health standard for health care, social service, and similar employers to address workplace violence, and its latest listed action was a referral to subcommittee.
Congress.gov's cosponsors page for H.R.2663 lists Becca Balint among the bill's cosponsors.
Assessments
The promise was to support federal legislation or OSHA standards on workplace-violence prevention in health care, not necessarily to secure final enactment. Becca Balint materially fulfilled that support pledge during her current House term by cosponsoring H.R. 2663, a bill specifically requiring an OSHA workplace-violence prevention standard for health care and social service employers. The bill did not pass, but because the commitment was to support this kind of federal action, her cosponsorship counts as delivery.
