Rony Jabour to Speak on Workplace Safety at NSC Congress & Expo 2025 in Denver
DENVER, CO, UNITED STATES, April 27, 2025 / EINPresswire.com / -- Rony Jabour, an occupational safety educator and founder of United Safety Net, is scheduled to speak at the National Safety Council (NSC) Congress & Expo 2025 in Denver, Colorado. The event, considered the largest workplace safety conference in the United States, will take place from September 12 to 18, with registration opening on May 13.
Jabour's presentation, 'Building Bridges: Enhancing Workplace Safety for Workers in the U.S.,' will address the need to strengthen safety practices across diverse workforces.
His focus reflects more than 15 years of experience training workers and advocating for improved standards, especially in construction and high-risk industries.
'Safety isn't just a checklist or a policy — it's a mindset that must be embraced by everyone, from the boardroom to the job site,' Jabour said in an interview. He emphasized that 'safety is not about PPE; it's about going back home safely every day.'
Born in Brazil and now based in the United States, Jabour holds dual master's degrees in Risk Management and Safety & Health from Texas University and additional certifications from Harvard University in Risk Analysis and Leadership & Management.
He has been recognized as a '40 Under 40 Rising Star' by the National Safety Council and as one of the Top 100 Leaders in Education.
In addition to his training work, Jabour is the founder and organizer of Build Safe Connection, an annual event that brings together construction professionals to promote safety practices, particularly among immigrant communities.
The NSC Congress & Expo 2025 is expected to draw more than 15,000 safety professionals, policymakers, and industry leaders. Jabour's participation underscores his growing role in shaping discussions on workplace safety nationally.
'Our goal is simple,' Jabour said. 'Every worker deserves to go home safe, every single day.'

Don't underestimate Donald Trump — he and his goals will survive without Elon Musk
Among other things last week, President Trump played host to Germany's chancellor in the Oval Office, issued a travel ban against 12 countries whose citizens routinely violate their visas, had a 'very positive' conversation about tariffs with Chinese leader Xi Jinping and twisted arms to push his 'one big beautiful bill' across the congressional finish line. Meanwhile, a stream of good economic news sent stock markets higher, with a jobs report beating expectations while inflation fell and wages rose. Oh, and Trump also had a brutal falling out with Elon Musk. Advertisement 3 Elon Musk attends news conference with President Donald Trump in the Oval Office of the White House, Friday, May 30, 2025, in Washington. AP No need to guess which of the above dominated the news. Bad news travels fast and predictions of calamity win eyeballs, but I've learned a few things knowing and covering Trump for a decade. Rule No. 1 is always to remember to take a deep breath when it feels as if the end of his days is near. Advertisement Whatever the sensational event of the moment, the smart play has been to realize that this too shall pass — and to feel sorry for cats because they only have nine lives. Rule No. 2 is to be prepared for the next big end of days event, which is coming soon, and to expect another one after that. The 47th president is a human machine full of pride and plans, but only rookies still attempt to define him by a single event. If a stream of nasty Democrat prosecutions and threats of jail didn't derail him, the end of a partnership with the world's richest man won't either. Advertisement While Trump often appears to be courting disaster, reports of his imminent political demise still remain premature. That's not to say he is impervious, only that he is the closest thing to it on the American scene today. The dogs bark, but the caravan moves on. Advertisement So long, Elon, it was nice knowing ya. Need for speed Another thing to remember about Trump is that he's in a hurry to get big things done and is determined not to get sidetracked by anything. He's well aware of how Dems used the Russia, Russia, Russia hoax to win the House in the middle of the first term and showed no compunction about impeaching him over a nothing-burger phone call. He's not going to squander his second chance with a GOP-controlled Congress to engage in wild goose chases or pout over setbacks, even when they involve an important ally such as Musk. The clock in his head is always ticking. 3 The Musk-Trump feud sparked the day after the DOGE head left the White House. NY Post Despite his occasional talk of a possible third term, he knows that's not going to happen. Besides the constitutional prohibition, the reality is that he turns 79 next Saturday, and the last thing Trump wants to do is stay too long at the party and repeat Joe Biden's decrepit decline in office. Thus, Trump's need for speed is what makes the Musk divorce important. It ends, or at least interrupts, an iconic alliance that was good for both men and was paying big dividends to America. Whether Musk is right that his support and his extensive financial contributions made the difference in last year's campaign is impossible to know. But there is no doubt that the addition of Musk, Robert F. Kennedy Jr. and Tulsi Gabbard to the Trump train broadened his appeal well beyond traditional GOP circles and MAGA diehards. Advertisement Consider, for example, that Kamala Harris foolishly tried to counter Trump's moves by adding former Republican Vice President Dick Cheney and his daughter Liz Cheney to her team and claiming they were evidence she had bipartisan appeal. The advantage to Trump wasn't a close call. As for Musk, most critical was his commitment to DOGE and to the idea that spending cuts are not only possible but essential to the nation's future. He used his soapbox to set a new standard for Washington, even if the results fell short of the promise. Advertisement Whatever started his break with Trump, it was complete when he attacked the tax cut and spending legislation the president helped to craft, saying at one point, 'I think a bill can be big or it can be beautiful, but I don't know if it can be both.' No damage to agenda The oddity is that the break came after Musk officially left his temporary DOGE post, complete with a happy sendoff in the Oval Office where Trump praised him and gave him a ceremonial key to the White House. Given the nasty nature of the rupture, attempts by others to forge a reconciliation are not likely to succeed. Yet even if the break is final, I don't believe it will do serious damage to the president's agenda, despite the hopes of media doomsayers. As even The New York Times ruefully conceded in a Saturday headline, 'Elon Musk May Be Out. But DOGE Is Just Getting Started.' Advertisement 3 President Donald Trump speaks during a news conference with Elon Musk in the Oval Office of the White House, Friday, May 30, 2025, in Washington. AP Another mistake many Trump observers are making is seeing him through the eyes of his chaotic first term. As I have noted before, Trump 2.0 is a very different person. Being on the sideline for four years served him well in that he better understood Washington, and was smarter about what he wanted to achieve and who could help him do that. Advertisement In raw political terms, Biden's spending-palooza that drove inflation to 40-year highs and the inexplicable decision to open the southern border were gifts that helped pave the way to a Trump return. And then came the brush with death from a would-be assassin's bullet in Pennsylvania. 'God spared me' I had previously arranged to interview Trump the next day on his flight to the GOP convention in Milwaukee, and to my everlasting surprise, he kept his schedule. It was during that interview that he first raised the idea of divine intervention, saying, 'I'm not supposed to be here . . . I'm supposed to be dead.' His wry sense of humor remained intact, as he noted that people were already calling the photo of him standing up, pumping his fist and shouting 'fight, fight, fight,' with his face streaked with his own blood, an 'iconic' scene. 'They're right and I didn't die,' Trump said. 'Usually you have to die to have an iconic picture.' Although he was never an especially religious man, Trump began to embrace the idea that 'God spared me for a purpose, and that purpose is to restore America to greatness.' It's a fat target for haters, but the important thing is that Trump himself believes it to be true. One result is that he is a much calmer and more gracious president. Even his demeanor last week reflected a 'what, me worry?' approach, as he demonstrated in a series of quick phone interviews with media outlets, including The Post, where he insisted he was not rattled by the blowup. His explanation was simple: Musk suffers from 'Trump Derangement Syndrome.' Woof, woof, and the caravan moves on.

Elon Musk, Who Called Trump's 'One Big Beautiful Bill' A 'Disgusting Abomination,' Responds To Coinbase CEO's Warning That Bitcoin Could Replace Dollar If Congress Isn't Held Accountable
Benzinga and Yahoo Finance LLC may earn commission or revenue on some items through the links below. Tesla and SpaceX CEO Elon Musk signaled agreement with Coinbase CEO Brian Armstrong's warning Wednesday that government overspending could lead to Bitcoin (CRYPTO: BTC) replacing the dollar as the reserve currency. What happened: Armstrong was responding to a post by World of Statistics that highlighted the alarming rise of U.S. federal debt in the last few years. The debt has ballooned to $36.9 trillion in 2025. "If the electorate doesn't hold Congress accountable to reducing the deficit and start paying down the debt, Bitcoin is going to take over as reserve currency," Armstrong said. Trending: — no wallets, just price speculation and free paper trading to practice different cryptocurrency mogul said that while he loves Bitcoin, he also desired a 'strong America' that is fiscally responsible. Musk responded to Armstrong's arguments with a U.S. flag emoji, indicating an It Matters: Musk has lashed out at the latest congressional spending bill, describing it as a 'disgusting abomination.' The White House has dismissed the criticism, stating that the bill does not contribute to the deficit. The House passed the $3.8 trillion tax-and-spending package, which President Donald Trump calls the "big, beautiful bill." While it promises an immediate economic boost through wide tax cuts and higher defense spending, market analysts warn of serious long-term fiscal ramifications. Entrepreneur and investor Anthony Pompliano stated last month that concerns about debt and inflation could fuel Bitcoin's growth. Read Next: New to crypto?

State of Crypto: How Crypto Legislation Is Advancing
The House Financial Services Committee might mark up market structure legislation next week, while the Senate seems close to passing its stablecoin bill. You're reading State of Crypto, a CoinDesk newsletter looking at the intersection of cryptocurrency and government. Click here to sign up for future editions. Here's what's clear: There are bills and they will probably get votes next week. Here's what's unclear: What all lawmakers might need to get enough votes to actually advance these bills, and if they're there already or not. The crypto industry has waited for years for Congress to pass legislation giving it some sort of regulatory clarity. Congress has taken a number of key steps this year already, but next week might see quite a few of these steps happen. Logistical details first. There will be markups in the House Financial Services Committee and the House Agriculture Committee on the market structure bill, the Digital Asset Market Clarity Act (otherwise known as just the Clarity Act) on Tuesday. That markup will likely end with lawmakers voting to advance the bill to the broader House of Representatives (it's possible the vote will fail, but it currently seems unlikely). On the Senate side, lawmakers might hold a series of votes as early as Monday on the Guiding and Establishing National Innovation for U.S. Stablecoins of 2025 Act (otherwise known as GENIUS) to advance it. Senator Ruben Gallego, the Arizona Democrat who spearheaded a pause in the bill's advancement, said in an interview on Thursday that he expects a massive bipartisan vote in favor of the legislation. It'll need 60 votes to clear cloture (this is a second cloture vote) and a simple majority afterward to pass the Senate entirely. After that, it's on to the House. "We've worked in a very honest, earnest manner with our Republican colleagues. We think that they've been also doing the same," he said. "They adopted a lot of the amendments, most of the amendments that we're we've been adding, and they've been continuing to work with some other Democrats who have some other concerns, but we believe that if all the changes are made, it's going to be a very solid, comprehensive bill that I think we could all be proud to vote for." In other words, by the end of next week it's possible the House of Representatives will have both a market structure bill to consider, amend and vote on and a stablecoin bill (the House Financial Services Committee version of GENIUS, the STABLE Act, already passed out of that committee a while ago). Whether both bills will make it to U.S. President Donald Trump's desk by the August recess is an open question. Policymakers in Washington, D.C. this week seemed skeptical that both bills would be passed by that deadline, though stablecoin legislation is likely to clear the House and Senate by then. One theory flying around is that the GENIUS Act in the Senate might get tagged onto the House's Clarity Act, letting the House vote on both its market structure bill and stablecoin bill at once and sending both back to the Senate. To be clear, this isn't a firm plan, just something various individuals have suggested is a possibility. However, I've heard that there will likely be pushback from both House and Senate lawmakers should this path be pursued. The other, more likely possibility seems to be that market structure legislation will just take longer — perhaps through the end of the year. This is despite Democrats' ongoing concerns that Trump is enriching himself through his various crypto ventures. Just this week, Trump's media firm, Truth Social, filed for a spot bitcoin exchange-traded fund (ETF) with Yorkville America and NYSE Arca. Assuming this product is approved, it'll open another avenue for a Trump-affiliated entity to benefit from interest in the industry. Further reading from this week: Trump's Crypto Ties at Forefront as U.S. Lawmakers Weigh Crypto Market Structure Bill Senate Stablecoin Bill Likely to Win Massive Bipartisan Support, Dem Lawmaker Says House Dems Get Bonus Hearing on Crypto Market Structure, Assail Trump Conflicts : Circle went public, with shares initially trading at $69 but surging to $100 after initially being priced at $31. Shares closed at $83 on Thursday. : NYSE Arca and Yorkville America Digital in partnership with Trump Media filed for a spot bitcoin exchange-traded fund called the Truth Social Bitcoin ETF, with Foris DAX Trust Company as the custodian. Both the 19b-4 and S-1 documents have been submitted, meaning as soon as the Securities and Exchange Commission acknowledges the filings, the 240-day clock is on. : Get Trump Memes plans to launch a TRUMP crypto wallet in partnership with Magic Eden, but President Donald Trump's kids say they don't know anything about it. World Liberty Financial, the Trump-linked project that does other crypto stuff, also plans to issue a wallet, and reportedly sent a cease-and-desist to Magic Eden. : French authorities arrested 25 different people tied to kidnapping attempts of various crypto executives and their family members. : The group of 25 individuals allegedly had a ringleader who Moroccan police arrested. : House Financial Services Committee Democrats say they haven't gotten much technical assistance from regulators on the Clarity Act. : U.S. authorities seized 145 darknet and internet domains tied to a market called BidenCash. : Very straightforward here. Tuesday 17:00 UTC (1:00 p.m. ET) House Financial Services Committee Chair French Hill said the House and Senate's respective stablecoin bills are close but need some work to be fully aligned with each other. Wednesday 14:00 UTC (10:00 a.m. ET) The House Financial Services Committee and House Agriculture Committee each held a hearing to discuss the Clarity Act, the new House market structure bill. Friday 13:00 UTC (9:00 a.m. ET) Democrats on the House Financial Services Committee held another hearing focused on President Donald Trump's crypto tie-ups, as well as the market structure bill introduced by House Republicans last week. (It's not on the calendar above because I am on the road this week and the calendar was made before the hearing was announced). () President Donald Trump and Elon Musk had a very public social media spat on Wednesday and Thursday.
