Yes! Now more than ever, we must protect NY workers against wage theft and unsafe working conditions. Sen. Stewart-Cousins we need the #EmPIREAct to make good on this promise!

🚨 NY’s wage theft crisis stole $50k from Carlton Gordon—a 74−year−old farmworker. 3 years after NYDOL’s ruling, he’s still owed 30k. Employers exploit workers because enforcement is broken. #EmPIREAct fixes this. ☞ CALL YOUR REP: secure.everyaction.com/p/5O9lufJRtkuu…

"New York can either resist or allow compromised leadership to make us complicit. The choice is clear. We must act now, before it’s too late." Thank you Catalina Cruz, Esq. for your fierce advocacy on behalf of immigrant families. #CARE4IF ow.ly/8cMu50VlYcp

Important op-ed published earlier this week on why we need the #EmPIREAct to protect NY's most vulnerable workers, strengthen union power, and fund the NYSDOL. Take action in support of EmPIRE today! ow.ly/80q650VlYHT ow.ly/VA2i50VlYHW

Wage theft is rampant in NY, and bad employers are getting away with it. The EmPIRE Act lets workers, whistleblowers & unions fight back and get what they’re owed. It’s time for NY to stand up for workers.

Employers steal $3B from NY workers every year. The EmPIRE Act can help stop this. With only two weeks left to pass EmPIRE, lawmakers to need to hear from you! Tap the link to call our elected leaders: bit.ly/EmPIRECall

Workers shouldn’t have to wait years to be paid their hard-earned wages. We need to expand public enforcement of the labor law by passing the #EmPIREAct this session! NYAssemblySpeakerHeastie AndreaStewartCousins

This reporting by Raga Justin is spot on. A prime example: the EmPIRE Worker Protection Act (S448a) remains stalled as Sen. Stewart-Cousins New York Senate Dems won't bring it to a vote, despite overwhelming support from 33 Dem sponsors -- a majority of the Senate. timesunion.com/capitol/articl…

Those who labor in extreme temperatures deserve access to water, rest and shade regardless of race or national origin. File under: arguments we shouldn’t have to make in the 21st century.
