“Wage theft is not taken seriously as a crime by this system,” says National Mobilization Against Sweatshops @NMASSwc. “How are working people who are working so hard expected to survive if it’s OK to have their wages stolen?” documentedny.com/2023/08/22/wag…
Thank you NYS Assembly Members @rontkim, @AndrewHevesi, @ZohranKMamdani, @marcelaforny, @EmilyAssembly, @AmandaSeptimo, @votejgr for letter to @NYSDOLCommish Reardon. @NYSLabor must enforce the law & stop home care & insurance companies from stealing home care workers' wages!
My @NYSA_Majority colleagues and I are calling on NYS DOL to follow the law and do their job in pursuing wage theft cases against home care workers.
Yesterday, workers protested @NYSDOLCommish Roberta Reardon, demanding she enforce the law! Why is she colluding w/insurance companies & sweatshops to rob & abuse us?! @GovKathyHochul must stop the corruption & support City Council's No More 24 Act to end NYC’s 24-hour workday!
Today, we joined @FlushingWorkers, @NMASSwc & Chinese Staff & Workers Association, to support home care workers. Pictured is Council Member @ChrisMarteNYC, co-sponsor of the No More 24 Act, speaking out against this injustice & demanding @USDOL investigate all workers' cases.

Workers rights org @NMASSwc says filing a wage theft claim in New York is a "waste of time". "I've seen so many workers file claims, and they’re told that they’re owed so much in back wages — and then nothing happens.” Investigation with @propublica documentedny.com/2023/08/21/nys…

"During my employment, I had to wash, dry and fold 80 pounds of clothing per hour. I worked 6 days a week and was paid only $10 per hour, without payment of overtime or meal break, a clear violation of the wage and hour law" –Sandra Mejia.@jessicaramos @FlushingWorkers @NMASSwc
At today's NYS Senate hearing, @aaldef's Bethany Li describes how Kum Gang San hid its assets to avoid paying $2.7 million judgment that we secured in wage theft case for Asian and Latino workers. The #SWEATAct is needed to hold employers responsible for labor law violations.
