AB5 is the issue and creature of the legislature, Prop 22 is a patch by unrelated corporate parties seeking an exemption who got citizens to pass it
Its a confusing distortion and mess to a labor market that really needs a third categorization
Classifying independent contractors as employees just so you can extend corporate health insurance to them is lazy and patronizing, not to rehash an old debate but not everyone is a victim or aspires to be an employee.
and now this mess about how to enforce labor violations on Prop 22 gig workers?
repeal AB5 in its entirety and come up with something more holistic
