I just happened to see this - a competitor to Uber https://twitter.com/lorenasgonzalez/status/1294121126528876546?s=21 …https://twitter.com/LorenaSGonzalez/status/1294121126528876546 …

Is this a joke? Elected officials file full disclosures of investments at least once a year (twice on election years.) I have no investments in any company. Some of us care about things besides money. #workers

ah yes, “care.” that’s definitely the word i would use for putting hundreds of thousands of people out of work in the middle of a national disaster. seriously, please resign. you’re hurting people.

Who's putting people out of work here? Uber and Lyft have the option of operating within the law. If people get put out of work, that's the companies' fault, not hers.

Yet another clueless proponent of AB5. S/he is referring to the MILLIONS of freelancers, sole proprietors, independent contractors, and self-employed Californians who don't drive for Uber and who have been legislated out of business by AB5.

No, he's referring to Uber and Lyft drivers. As you'd have noticed if you'd read the thread instead of just reflexively responding to it.

It’s affecting more than them, that’s the point. The bill affects independent contractors (the drivers aren’t employees, they are independent contractors)

No, the drivers aren't "independent contractors". To wit, the court has just told them as much.
