# state senate bill tries to stop garment industry wage theft. https://nu.federati.net/url/277125 [www latimes com]

I think one thing that could help is to treat wage theft as a serious crime on the same level as bank robbery. Get cross-agency task forces and strike teams to arrest and prosecute the ringleaders and send them to decades-long prison sentences. Take the proceeds of their theft and use them to reimburse their victims with interest.
