Stop Protecting Wage Thieves!

When wage theft occurs, workers and their families are denied hard-earned wages, local economies lose the extra consumer spending that is so vital to a community’s economic health, and responsible employers are forced to compete with unscrupulous businesses that undercut them on labor costs. The Florida Legislature is attempting to block local governments from passing wage theft ordinances, eliminating an efficient process for workers to find justice. Florida workers should have a just and accessible program to regain stolen wages.
