After seven years, the Construction Justice Act has passed!

Many New Yorkers who build our city’s skyline can’t afford to live in it. Construction remains one of the deadliest industries, with routine wage theft, and non-union labor that jeopardizes the lives of workers.

JUST IN: Democrats have swept the three supreme court elections in Pennsylvania.

They beat back a concerted GOP effort to erase their majority; instead, they'll keep a 5-2 edge on this very important court.

Nonunion Laborers tearing up the #WhiteHouse #EastWing for a $200M ballroom while REAL workers are LOCKED OUT, waiting on a paycheck. “Workers first”? Don’t make us laugh.

"We can’t cower in fear and hope Trump’s authoritarian power grab blows over. We have to organize new members, build independent political power in our communities, and educate our fellow workers and our communities about what is at stake." - @Jimmy_iupat https://t.co/iyHWon0fSJ

In addition to paying the workers Alba harmed, the company will implement sweeping reforms to end this abuse.

My office will never allow companies to cheat workers out of their rights or create hostile workplaces that endanger people's safety.

[NY AG James @NewYorkStateAG]

We secured $1.4 million for over 700 current and former New York City construction workers whose rights were violated while working for Alba Services.

Alba spent years silencing injured workers, manipulating insurance costs, and allowing a culture of workplace harassment.

The dashboard tracks and analyzes workplace violations in NYC, using data from across enforcement agencies.

While most NYC employers have not violated the law, New Yorkers deserve to know which ones have.

Local leaders joined construction laborers and Laborers’ Local 79 union members at Edgemere Commons earlier today to call on NYC HPD to remove Joy Construction as the project's general contractor.

Last month, a construction worker suffered an injury at the project site.
