Immigration Research Initiative’s Anthony Capote made an appearance this week on “Building Bridges” with Mimi Rosenberg and Ken Nash to talk about IRI’s ongoing series about how to build worker power for immigrant workers.

IRI’s Director, David Dyssegard Kallick and Daniel Costa, Director of Immigration Law and Policy Research at the Economic Policy Institute, co-authored an op-ed featured in the Times Union. The op-ed, titled “Overtime Pay Will Help, Not Hurt, New York’s Farms,” highlights the importance of passing a farmworkers’ rights bill in New York. The op-ed also highlights how this bill will help farms and how it is doable in New York, as it has been done in other states.
