Aside from the economic issues we have seen a decrease in funding regulatory agencies ever since Reagan.

Filling the void increasingly are state initiatives, including the criminalization of certain employer practices. Evidence the enforcement action against an NYC retailer by Attorney General Andrew Cuomo.
