I will be collecting some articles related to Gig worker and platform challenges this year, and beyond. I will also be including anti-Independent Contractor laws both current and states actively pursuing these laws, as well as what the gig companies are doing to fight these laws. Here is part 1 of the articles, part 2 will post on Thursday (May 5th). Next week I will be writing an article based on these posts content.
