joining me new york state attorney general democrat eric snyderman. his office is looking into wage violations in the state's fast food industry. attorney general, you've been opening this investigate that centers on the lack of power that these workers have. one symptom of that is the wages that they are paid. the other symptom is that even the wages that they should be paid are often not paid. >> it's no coincidence that we've been able to make these cases because workers are coming forward where they were reluctant to before. at the same time they're raising their voices and organizing. this is part of the same pattern. we can't do anything in law enforcement if people don't report crimes to us. in the last few months we've gotten probably 3,000 workers wages from employers who were beating them out of $7.25 an hour and $8 an hour. most employers would like to pay their workers a decent minimum wage. a living wage. they are undercut by bottom feeders. if you don't raise the minimum wage and you don't have good enforcement, that's something we're se
