I realize you're tired and frustrated with people expressing upset over AB5. But losing our careers isn't minor. Coming up with policy that corrects injustice without destroying good work is *your job.* And if we don't agree with you, it's *our responsibility* to tell you.

You should really have talked to more freelance writers and website owners before crafting this law. The 35 article limit is a huge mistake. Many make a great living writing way more articles than that for many different websites. This law destroys lives.

Do you know some people like juggling multiple clients? I am a freelance writer and I frequently have 10+ clients per month. I like doing different *types* of work, which is common in creative fields.

Serious question, are you all right? Maybe have a nice cup of calming chamomile tea. Also, non-politicians like us shouldn't have to put out policy proposals to curb this chaos. That was your job. But, hey, if we must.

@SenWarren are you aware about this person? Her law is making Californians unhireable and when we tell her about our loss of income, potential or real, *this* is her reply. She has told people to sue former employers and to go on unemployment. How is THIS good for the economy? -
Senator Warren actually wrote an opinion editorial in support of AB5.https://www.google.com/amp/s/amp.sacbee.com/opinion/article233987982.html …
