The US Department of Labor has made clear how these workers can secure protection, but to date, the US Department of Homeland Security has refused to take a clear, public position.       Workers in Las Vegas spoke out publicly in April 2021 to seek protections as victims and witnesses in the ongoing Department of Labor investigation into Unforgettable Coatings Inc, a commercial painting company based in Las Vegas. Since 2019, workers in Las Vegas have been fighting to recover unpaid wages from Unforgettable Coatings Inc. After workers first reported wage theft, they were targeted and retaliated against by their employer. On July 6, 2022, the Department of Labor published frequently asked questions for workers who need immigration protections in relation to ongoing labor disputes. Since then, workers have been calling on the US Department of Homeland Security to follow the lead of the US Labor Department and grant Las Vegas workers protections.   Now is the time to call on the Department of Homeland Security to protect all Unforgettable Workers, and clarify how other workers can also win protections in relation to ongoing labor disputes. A labor investigation without workers is an exercise in futility. DHS must act now to protect immigrant workers who are witnesses, advocates and victims in the face of ongoing labor abuses.
