Immigrant workers represent 12 percent of our nation's workers, and many industries and across 
the country depend heavily on their labor. However, immigrant laborers too often do not reap the just benefits of their work. CLINIC established the Immigrant Workers' Justice Project to help improve the lives of immigrant workers across the country through training, technical assistance, and advocacy on issues like wages, working conditions, and verification systems in the workplace.
