A bill to amend the Fair Labor Standards Act of 1938 and the Portal-to-Portal Act of 1947 to prevent wage theft and assist in the recovery of stolen wages, to authorize the Secretary of Labor to administer grants to prevent wage and hour violations, and for other purposes.

This bill would change existing labor laws to help prevent employers from not paying workers the wages they are owed, and to help workers get back money they should have been paid. It would also let the Secretary of Labor provide grants aimed at stopping violations of wage and hour laws. No official summary is available for this bill.
