$1.2M for Cheated Immigrant Workers in NYC

"Another week, another rogue employer bites the dust.  In what is as much a part of New York’s urban landscape as the Brooklyn Bridge, one more dishonest employer has been found brazenly cheating immigrant workers — and will have to pay for it.  City Controller John Liu announced Wednesday a nearly $1.2 million settlement on behalf of the workers who, for years, had been robbed of much of their wages and benefits." - NY Daily News, Apr. 8, 2012.
