During a California Senate committee hearing on Thursday to discuss new legislation that would affect labor law AB5, which codifies a state supreme court decision requiring many independent contractors and gig workers to be classified as employees, California Senator Hannah-Beth Jackson remarked that some workers were frustrated with the law because it took away their “lollipop.”
Leading up to the remarks, Jackson maintained that some of the frustrations over the labor law, which went into effect this year, were actually misplaced.
