Just last week, Assistant Attorney General Dillon and I met with other high level officials within the administration to continue our coordination enforcement across multiple government agencies because it really is important that we build a united front with the Department of Labor, [U.S. Citizenship and Immigration Services], Department of Justice, to go after these companies and enforce our respective statutes to ensure that the law breaking ends and that American workers aren’t receiving the short end of the stick.

We are going after the big fish here. They’re the ones who have sophisticated legal counsel and law firms on retainer who know know what the law requires and know what it prohibits, and if they’re flouting the law, then that’s a slap in the face to the Justice Department, to the people of this country and to the American workers who are suffering because of it.

So though our enforcement resources aren’t limitless, we are working aggressively to identify all these potential violations of federal law, [to] open investigations and hold employers accountable through enforcement actions or through resolution agreements that end the wrongdoing.
