"Minnesota AG Files $3M Wage Theft Lawsuit Against Evergreen Acres Dairy"

The Minnesota Attorney General's Office has filed a $3 million wage theft case against Evergreen Acres Dairy in Stearns County, alleging that the dairy farm failed to pay workers, threatened them, and confined them to squalid housing. The lawsuit, one of the largest of its kind in Minnesota, seeks more than $3 million for violations involving dozens of workers, most of whom are immigrants from Oaxaca, Mexico, who were allegedly robbed of up to a quarter of their wages each pay period.
