> $230M in back wages was recovered by the Dept. of Labor last year alone

If the new administration has its way, that number will be zero going forward.



Yeah, if certain folks had their way, wage theft would go from “illegal” to “just good business.” The reality? Companies will always push the limits when there’s no accountability. That $230M is just the tip of the iceberg—imagine how much goes unclaimed because people don’t know their rights or don’t want to fight.

That’s why tools like this exist. Because whether the system is working for you or actively trying to break you, knowing how to push back is half the battle.


There won't be much of an economy left, so maybe you're right.
