Why is this relationship surprising? It’s common knowledge that the unions and the Democrats have been in bed together for years.
Papa John’s should just close down their locations in New York. I’m sure they can thrive in states that don’t have this nonsense.
The proggs have coined another new term. “Wage theft”. I guess we will hear this ad nauseum on all of the lefties shows & news broadcasts.
legalized extortion
Papa Johns should call the other pizza companies, form a pact, and pull out of New York simultaneously and entirely.
re: In March 2013, Schneiderman reached a settlement with six Domino’s Pizza franchises for not paying minimum wage, overtime or vehicle expense reimbursements to drivers and also extracted $500,000 for mostly minimum-wage workers at McDonald’s restaurants operated by the Cisneros Group.

I do not know if this particular case was extortion. But if the franchises did not pay minimum wage, overtime, and vehicle expense reimbursements as charged and as the law required, shame on them. I support business in the battle against the evil union thugs, but I want our side to be accountable if they are abusing employees. Let’s fight the battle without giving them ammunition.
What is this, a gang shakedown? Oh, it just the unions again.

Ugh.
Leftists ought to be executed.
Yes, I totally said that. They are the modern-day wannabe slavemasters, dressed up in the “Collective.”
Evil, all of them.
After they get every thing shut down to where half of the people are rummaging in garbage cans trying to find something to eat they will still blame it on to the other side.
And the mentality retarded ones in Government are taking them serious.
Easy, close down all Papa John’s in NY.
Unions = Detroit
What exactly are the Unions claiming that Poppa Johns has done that constitutes wage theft?
I skimmed the article, the read it and it still doesn’t say what they did.
After everybody else is paid those workers will get their .15 cent check.
