From the Ess Eff Chronicle:
So far, at least publicly, Newsom hasn’t taken the lead on AB5, the state legislation that would turn Uber and Lyft drivers and other gig workers into company employees instead of independent contractors, with access to benefits such as health insurance and workers’ compensation. The Assembly has passed the measure and if the Senate does the same before the end of this year’s session ends Sept. 13, it will land on Newsom’s desk.

This happened with many companies after Obamacare came out. But remember, these Uber "gig" employees have no benefits whatsoever.
I've seen them do this shit before in other industries.
It'll basically turn everyone who does it full time into a 30hour/week temp employee with no benefits of any sort. This sort of shit always fucks the working guy in the ass.

Yeah, but at least they are not limited to 30 hours. After this, they will be.
It'll be like retail employees who all have 3 jobs, because each job has to keep hours below the threshold where mandatory benefits kick in.
