Yes. The employer must provide protective gear (usually, hats with a veil in the back, so that your neck doesn't get burned) and drinking water.

No one forces you to do anything. I live in Florida and if everyone refused to work when it gets too hot, nothing would ever get done. I would say quit that job and get a wimpy job working inside where you have air conditioning. Mexicans will take your job away from you anyway if you complain.

no specific rules but all employers have a duty of care for their employees to have a healthy and safe working environment, and if that is not provided then the employee can resoprt to litigation

I think it depends on your state and occupation. Call the Department of Labor. They should be able to answer for you.

nope.
If you work as a construction worker for example and they are working, than you have to work.
