Rep. Alma S. Adams, Ph.D., currently serving in the U.S. Congress representing North Carolina’s 12th district, has voiced her concerns regarding recent legislative efforts aimed at dismantling the Occupational Safety and Health Administration (OSHA). Her statements on social media highlight her opposition to H.R. 86, a bill introduced by Republican lawmakers.
On February 5, 2025, Rep. Adams expressed her disapproval of the proposed legislation via Twitter: "As the former Ranking Member of the Subcommittee on Workforce Protections, I am appalled and disgusted to see the Republican efforts to eliminate OSHA through H.R. 86."
In another tweet posted on the same day, she emphasized OSHA's role in safeguarding workers across various sectors: "From factories to warehouses to farmland and everywhere in between, @OSHA_DOL protects the well-being of working people throughout the United States."
Further reinforcing her stance against H.R. 86, Rep. Adams declared her commitment to preventing its progression within Congress: "I will fight to ensure this bill never reaches the House floor and will continue to support working class Americans in the struggle for safe working conditions."
