Coalition for Immokalee Workers

In my former role as head of the Southern District of Florida's Human Trafficking Task Force I had the pleasure of working with the Coalition of Immokalee Workers in combatting human trafficking. The Coalition has been leading a charge to obtain 1.5 cents more per pound from fast food chains such as Taco Bell, and today they announced another such deal with Miami-based Burger King. The Coalition does a remarkable job working with law enforcement to ensure that farm workers are not exploited into forced labor, and their work investigating such abuses should be commended.
