Biden announces measures to deal with extreme heat

A prolonged heatwave in the US has created concerns in the White House as medics are warning of a rising number of burns and heat strokes in the workplace.
President Biden has announced a number of measures to help Americans deal with extreme temperatures, as a heatwave spreads across large parts of the United States.
