44. 1994: Here's more
There were more than 500 labor complaints filed last year in 1996, according to the commonwealth government. Some are passed along to the U.S. Department of Labor to pursue. In 1994 the department successfully sued a Japanese company that owned several bars employing underage girls.

The lawsuit involving Katrina and her co-workers, filed in the U.S. District Court in Saipan, is not expected to go to trial until late this year. Defendants Eugene R. Zamora Sr. and Marylou "Malou" Zamora, whom Katrina said brought her to Saipan from the Philippines, are believed to have returned to their home country.
Defendant Francisco Matsunaga, the Zamoras' partner at the Club Kalesa, where Katrina worked, died last November.

That's Clinton's Labor Department - The Republican Revolution started in 1994 and Reagan and Bush ran the store before 1993. So Clinton only had 2 years with total power when the problem was smaller and not really on the radar.
