Nonprofit: Many workers denied wages

Armed with a new survey citing numerous instances where day laborers have been victims of wage theft, a workers? rights group Monday called on Gov.-elect Martin O?Malley to enforce laws to protect immigrants from employment abuse.

“We?re not asking for legislation right now,” said Gustavo Torres, executive director of CASA of Maryland, a nonprofit group that advocates for the rights of immigrants. “The law is clear. We have hope that this administration will be better than the previous administration.”
