Labor

Every individual in our nation should have the opportunity to pursue a career of their choice with robust rights and protections. Labor rights are fundamental protections that protect workers from discrimination, unfair pay, and unsafe working conditions. Upholding labor rights is essential for promoting equality and justice in the workplace. For me, being a voice for workers across the country is a necessity.

For information on services and resources tailored to the needs of workers please visit  U.S Department of Labor  and New York Department of Labor . Please contact our office for assistance with any questions or problems you may have.
