Rabbis For Human Rights - North America

Take Action

"You shall not abuse a needy and destitute laborer, whether a fellow Israelite or a stranger in one of the
communities of your land. You must pay out the wages due on the same day, before the sun sets, for the worker is
needy and urgently depends on it." (Deuteronomy 24:14–15)
