Sikhs Tell U.S. Officials They Face Bigotry, Workplace Discrimination

Members of the Sikh community in the San Francisco Bay area have told U.S. law enforcement officials that they face severe workplace discrimination and hate, and want the federal government to be more vigilant in pursuing such crimes.
