If you are one of those people in the other 49 states who have taken up freelancing, know that the #PROAct is seeking to rob this new avenue from you.
Don't believe your Congress Rep, who probably voted for it in the House; or any person aligned with Labor or lobbying, including your Chamber of Commerce. The #PROAct will kill Right to Work, and force you into collective bargaining. It wants to dictate how you do your work.
There are forces in ivory tower academia, government, and Labor that want to see the independent contractor model GONE. Now that you have discovered this newfound earning freedom, don't let them take it away. Tell your Senator #NOProAct, and vote accordingly.

@Gunn4DG Yes, she is the embodiment of craft the law according to my purposes and not align purposes to the law.
@Gunn4DG And saying that unless you are a creative writing, you're misclassified? By what standard?! None of them interviewed anyone who writes for a living. I'm not talking about WGA or the journalist union stooges--I'm talking about people who actually do the work across platforms. /1
@Gunn4DG I have been paid for technical writing, editorial writing, creative writing, filmic writing, opinion writing, investigative writing, ad infinitum with and without my byline. 2/

THREAD: Here are some representations of Labor, lobbying organizations, and elected Reps who support #PROAct passage. Be aware, be warned, and where possible, VOTE THEM OUT.

@ConorLambPA voted for the PROAct. He is in a tight race with @SeanParnellUSA. Time for Conor to go. Image
@GarciaHolmes4NM is running against @RepDebHaaland. Haaland championed the #PROAct. Time for Deb to go. Image
@RepWilson is on House Labor Committees and championed the #PROAct. She has several challengers but Floridians need to coalesce around one in order to see her out. Image

National SEIU $100,000. So far that's over 200 mil, and that's only 4 contributors to #NoOnProp22. So, tell us again about "democracy", Steve? Image

For those who wanted the full thread in context, I am retweeting Avogato and then adding my comments to it as the quote thread below... 1/
Veena Dubal from her testimony at the February 26, 2019 Labor Committee hearing on #AB5.
This is one of the lies she told to reassure professionals that they truly would be exempt from AB5.

@veenadubal loves to block as much as she loves to misinform and change the language to suit her ends. Here's a screen shot of the tweet that @dtr300 is referencing. Image
As Caribou Barbie rightly pointed out, Veena Dubal doesn't care about power being entrenched in fewer hands, as long as she and her Union friends control the hands. They have been on a coercive campaign to silence and cancel the rights of ICs, freelancers, and gig workers. 2/
Astroturf Rideshare groups like Gig Workers Rising, Ridershare Drivers United and others are a front to destroy support for #YesOnProp22, harass and doxx Uber/Lyft CEOs and anyone who aligns with their independent contractor model. /3

According to the site, glassdoor.com. An associate professor at .@UCHastingsLaw like .@VeenaDubal earns between $147,000-211,000 a year, and can earn cash bonuses of $15,000-17,000 annually. 1/
This does not include any earnings from articles, media appearances, and writing "scholarship" that elected officials use to change policy and control people's lives. 2/
I'm all about capitalism, but is it right for unelected officials to be this well paid while destroying other's ability to get paid and control their own livelihoods? Who gave them such rights? Why does .@UCHastingsLaw give them a platform and power? /3 #RepealAB5
