His work has appeared on Newsweek.com, Slate.com, CBSNews.com, MotherJones.com, DailyKos.com and NPR’s web site. Fiore’s political animation has appeared on CNN, Frontline, Bill Moyers Journal, Salon.com and cable and broadcast outlets across the globe.\r\n\r\nBeginning his professional life by drawing traditional political cartoons for newspapers, Fiore’s work appeared in publications ranging from the Washington Post to the Los Angeles Times. In the late 1990s, he began to experiment with animating political cartoons and, after a short stint at the San Jose Mercury News as their staff cartoonist, Fiore devoted all his energies to animation.\r\nGrowing up in California, Fiore also spent a good portion of his life in the backwoods of Idaho. It was this combination that shaped him politically. Mark majored in political science at Colorado College, where, in a perfect send-off for a cartoonist, he received his diploma in 1991 as commencement speaker Dick Cheney smiled approvingly.\r\nMark Fiore was awarded the Pulitzer Prize for political cartooning in 2010, a Robert F. Kennedy Journalism Award in 2004 and has twice received an Online Journalism Award for commentary from the Online News Association (2002, 2008). Fiore has received two awards for his work in new media from the National Cartoonists Society (2001, 2002), and in 2006 received The James Madison Freedom of Information Award from The Society of Professional Journalists.",

President Trump should have at least read the instruction manual he inherited when he assumed the presidency, in particular the chapter on respecting the rule of law,” Becerra said in a statement.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Federal law sets standards for how much pollution can come from cars and trucks. But since the 1970s, the federal government has given California permission to set its own rules because it has the most cars on the road of any state and struggles to meet air quality standards.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\u003c/div>",

Trump will head to a similar fundraiser in Beverly Hills Tuesday afternoon.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Asked what California donors like about Trump, Dhillon listed his taking the fight to Democrats, \"unlike these RINOs (Republican In Name Only)\" in Washington, D.C., and also his \"America First\" rhetoric and tax cuts, although she acknowledged many wealthy Californians are unhappy about the GOP tax bill, which places limits on allowable federal deductions for state and local taxes.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Dhillon, who was born in India, added that \"some immigrants like me really like his positions on illegal immigration.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[ad fullwidth]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Although the administration isn't saying much, President Trump is sure to use his California visit to continue bashing the state's liberal policies, which he says have contributed to the number of homeless people on the streets.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Last week, Trump officials \u003ca href=\"https://www.latimes.com/california/story/2019-09-10/trump-officials-los-angeles-homeless-crisis\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">visited Los Angeles\u003c/a> to check out the city's infamous skid row to see what programs are working.

Only 10 of the candidates this time qualified for a prime-time opportunity to make their case, with front-runner Joe Biden sharing the debate stage for the first time with Elizabeth Warren, who has enjoyed a steady rise in the polls since the first debate held in June. Then, California Sen. Kamala Harris memorably attacked Joe Biden for his decades-old opposition to school busing. But this time it was his fellow former Obama Cabinet member, Julian Castro, who made the most personally direct attacks against 76-year-old Biden, including a suggestion that his memory is suffering because of his age. \u003c/span>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cb>Guests:\u003c/b>\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> \u003c/span>\u003c/p>\n\u003cul>\n\u003cli style=\"font-weight: 400;\">\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Seema Mehta, political writer, Los Angeles Times\u003c/span>\u003c/li>\n\u003cli style=\"font-weight: 400;\">\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Joe Garofoli, senior political writer, San Francisco Chronicle\u003c/span>\u003c/li>\n\u003c/ul>\n\u003cp>\u003cb>From Gig Workers to Rent Control, Legislative Highlights as Session Ends\u003cbr>\n\u003c/b>\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400;\">This week, lawmakers in Sacramento passed AB 5, a bill that is sending shock waves through the tech industry, especially ride-hailing services Uber and Lyft that dominate the so-called gig economy. The bill could affect roughly a million gig workers in the state by reclassifying them as employees rather than independent contractors, and entitling them to benefits such as health insurance and a pension. Uber and Lyft, along with the meal delivery service DoorDash, have vowed to spend $90 million to place a ballot measure before voters next year to fight it. Also this week, lawmakers passed for the first time a statewide rent control bill to help millions of tenants, as California grapples with a housing crisis and a surge in homelessness. \u003c/span>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cb>Guest:\u003c/b>\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> \u003c/span>\u003c/p>\n\u003cul>\n\u003cli style=\"font-weight: 400;\">\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Marisa Lagos, KQED politics and government correspondent\u003c/span>\u003c/li>\n\u003c/ul>\n\u003cp>\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> \u003c/span>\u003cb>Berkeley Rep’s New Season and New Artistic Director\u003cbr>\n\u003c/b>\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400;\">On Thursday night, the Berkeley Repertory Theatre will kick off its 51st season with the American premiere of “The Great Wave,” a story of separation and struggle between two sisters that plays out across North Korea and Japan.This season’s lineup of shows will also be helmed by a new artistic director, Johanna Pfaelzer, a New York theater veteran who helped bring to the stage Tony Award-winning productions such as “Hamilton” and “American Idiot.” \u003c/span>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[ad fullwidth]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cb>Guest:\u003c/b>\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> \u003c/span>\u003c/p>\n\u003cul>\n\u003cli style=\"font-weight: 400;\">\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Johanna Pfaelzer, artistic director, Berkeley Repertory Theatre\u003c/span>\u003c/li>\n\u003c/ul>\n\n",

Only 10 of the candidates this time qualified for a prime-time opportunity to make their case, with front-runner Joe Biden sharing the debate stage for the first time with Elizabeth Warren, who has enjoyed a steady rise in the polls since the first debate held in June. Then, California Sen. Kamala Harris memorably attacked Joe Biden for his decades-old opposition to school busing. But this time it was his fellow former Obama Cabinet member, Julian Castro, who made the most personally direct attacks against 76-year-old Biden, including a suggestion that his memory is suffering because of his age. \u003c/span>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cb>Guests:\u003c/b>\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> \u003c/span>\u003c/p>\n\u003cul>\n\u003cli style=\"font-weight: 400;\">\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Seema Mehta, political writer, Los Angeles Times\u003c/span>\u003c/li>\n\u003cli style=\"font-weight: 400;\">\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Joe Garofoli, senior political writer, San Francisco Chronicle\u003c/span>\u003c/li>\n\u003c/ul>\n\u003cp>\u003cb>From Gig Workers to Rent Control, Legislative Highlights as Session Ends\u003cbr>\n\u003c/b>\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400;\">This week, lawmakers in Sacramento passed AB 5, a bill that is sending shock waves through the tech industry, especially ride-hailing services Uber and Lyft that dominate the so-called gig economy. The bill could affect roughly a million gig workers in the state by reclassifying them as employees rather than independent contractors, and entitling them to benefits such as health insurance and a pension. Uber and Lyft, along with the meal delivery service DoorDash, have vowed to spend $90 million to place a ballot measure before voters next year to fight it. Also this week, lawmakers passed for the first time a statewide rent control bill to help millions of tenants, as California grapples with a housing crisis and a surge in homelessness. \u003c/span>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cb>Guest:\u003c/b>\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> \u003c/span>\u003c/p>\n\u003cul>\n\u003cli style=\"font-weight: 400;\">\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Marisa Lagos, KQED politics and government correspondent\u003c/span>\u003c/li>\n\u003c/ul>\n\u003cp>\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> \u003c/span>\u003cb>Berkeley Rep’s New Season and New Artistic Director\u003cbr>\n\u003c/b>\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400;\">On Thursday night, the Berkeley Repertory Theatre will kick off its 51st season with the American premiere of “The Great Wave,” a story of separation and struggle between two sisters that plays out across North Korea and Japan.This season’s lineup of shows will also be helmed by a new artistic director, Johanna Pfaelzer, a New York theater veteran who helped bring to the stage Tony Award-winning productions such as “Hamilton” and “American Idiot.” \u003c/span>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\u003c/div>",

Uber cut 400 people from its marketing team in July, reported a quarterly loss of $5.2 billion in August and sent layoff notices to another 400-plus workers this week.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>On Wednesday, Uber’s chief legal officer, Tony West, said in a press call that the company plans to fight the tougher employment test once AB 5 takes effect next year. “We still may pass the test,” he said. “We believe we can pass the harder test.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>But concerns around basic worker protections also have become pressing in California, where one worker in three earns less than $15 an hour and the poverty rate hovers above 18% when cost of living is taken into account.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Aside from the philosophical questions around AB 5, the state estimates it loses about $7 billion a year in payroll taxes due to worker misclassification, revenue that could be supporting schools, roads and other public services. Supporters of the bill argue that by avoiding unemployment insurance taxes and workers’ compensation premiums, businesses shift the burden to the state — and its taxpayers — when workers get laid off, get sick or get injured on the job.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Opponents warned that the bill would invite trial lawyers to file frivolous lawsuits against thousands of California businesses and called the bill a blatant power grab by big labor.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“This bill is the union caucus’ main event of the year,” said Sen. Jeff Stone, R-Temecula, who held up an exemption request form, \u003ca href=\"https://calmatters.org/newsletter/legislators-return-the-future-of-work-recycling-crisis-ucs-shrouded-side-door-and-segregated-schools/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">obtained by CalMatters\u003c/a>, that labor groups had been presenting to industry advocates seeking a carve-out.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Industries as varied as trucking and health care also \u003ca href=\"https://calmatters.org/economy/2019/06/california-dynamex-gig-worker-classification-independent-contractors-uber-lyft-strippers-truckers-freelancers/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">pushed back\u003c/a>, arguing that the legislation would rewrite the rules for independent workers whose status has worked for them for decades.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“AB 5 does not take into account the more than 70,000 California truckers who have built their business around the independent owner-operator model, invested hundreds of thousands of dollars in their trucks and have made the decision to run their own businesses,” Shawn Yadon, CEO of the California Trucking Association, said before the bill passed.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Hospitals, too, are worried the bill will not only cause confusion but may have the unintended consequence of delaying patient services. Gail Blanchard-Saiger, vice president of labor and employment at the California Hospital Association, said although doctors, psychologists and podiatrists are exempt from AB 5 and hospitals employ more than 90% of their workforce, many medical professionals such as physical therapists and certified registered nurse anesthetists are contracted at small and rural hospitals where volume is low.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“The impact on the hospital for these health professionals is probably a delay in services and in particular rural communities maybe a reduction in services,” said Blanchard-Saiger.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c!-- iframe plugin v.4.3 wordpress.org/plugins/iframe/ -->\u003cbr>\n\u003ciframe src=\"https://e.infogram.com/0bd989ed-c681-49aa-bb02-7e2149aa76b5?src=embed\" title=\"AB 5: Who's exempt\" width=\"550\" height=\"1610\" scrolling=\"no\" frameborder=\"0\" style=\"border:none;\" allowfullscreen=\"allowfullscreen\" class=\"iframe-class\">\u003c/iframe>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Among the other health professionals not exempt under AB 5: occupational therapist, speech therapist, optometrist, nurse practitioner, physician assistant, radiation therapist, licensed professional clinical counselor, marriage and family therapist, licensed clinical social workers, respiratory therapists, audiology.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>In the final weeks of the legislative session, gig companies unsuccessfully campaigned heavily for a new, first-in-the-nation framework that would allow their workers to remain independent while offering a wage floor and some kind of bargaining tool. And on Tuesday, Newsom told The Wall Street Journal that he is still talking to Lyft and Uber “and regardless of what happens with AB 5, I am committed, at least, to continuing those negotiations.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The San Francisco Chronicle \u003ca href=\"https://www.sfchronicle.com/business/article/Uber-circulates-new-gig-work-bill-as-alternative-14426247.php?utm_campaign=CMS%20Sharing%20Tools%20(Premium)&utm_source=t.co&utm_medium=referral\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">reported\u003c/a> potential legislation calling for a new category of workers — to be known as “network drivers” — to cover rideshare and delivery service drivers, guaranteeing at least 1.27 times minimum wage, reimbursement of 30 cents a mile and contributing 4% to a Drivers Benefits Fund to purchase workers compensation insurance and other benefits.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Uber and Lyft say the codification of the Dynamex decision — that established a three-part test for certifying contractors — will force them to \u003ca href=\"https://calmatters.org/economy/2019/09/what-happens-to-uber-and-lyft-drivers-once-ab-5-passes/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">fundamentally change\u003c/a> their hiring practices. It likely means the rideshare industry will take on fewer drivers and assign shifts, giving drivers less flexibility.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Labor representatives called it a scare tactic and said nothing prevents companies from maintaining flexibility for workers.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>During debate before the Senate vote, Republicans sought to include hostile amendments aimed at expanding exemptions for newspapers, physical therapists, the timber industry and more. Each was tabled by Democrats who control both houses of the Legislature.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Gonzalez, however, did agree to exempt the newspaper industry from converting carriers for one year.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“While I personally disagree with this delay, I’m willing to allow the newspaper industry the additional year to comply if it means those delivery drivers and nearly a million other misclassified workers are provided the minimum wage, benefits and workplace rights of Assembly Bill 5,” she said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>A few industries did get the exemption they sought, such as builders and contractors. Peter Tateishi, CEO of the Associated General Contractors of California, said his organization ended up backing the bill after being allowed to contract with other contractors under a business-to-business carve-out.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[ad floatright]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003ci>CalMatters.org is a nonprofit, nonpartisan media venture explaining California policies and politics.\u003c/i>\u003c/p>\n\n",

Uber cut 400 people from its marketing team in July, reported a quarterly loss of $5.2 billion in August and sent layoff notices to another 400-plus workers this week.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>On Wednesday, Uber’s chief legal officer, Tony West, said in a press call that the company plans to fight the tougher employment test once AB 5 takes effect next year. “We still may pass the test,” he said. “We believe we can pass the harder test.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>But concerns around basic worker protections also have become pressing in California, where one worker in three earns less than $15 an hour and the poverty rate hovers above 18% when cost of living is taken into account.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Aside from the philosophical questions around AB 5, the state estimates it loses about $7 billion a year in payroll taxes due to worker misclassification, revenue that could be supporting schools, roads and other public services. Supporters of the bill argue that by avoiding unemployment insurance taxes and workers’ compensation premiums, businesses shift the burden to the state — and its taxpayers — when workers get laid off, get sick or get injured on the job.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Opponents warned that the bill would invite trial lawyers to file frivolous lawsuits against thousands of California businesses and called the bill a blatant power grab by big labor.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“This bill is the union caucus’ main event of the year,” said Sen. Jeff Stone, R-Temecula, who held up an exemption request form, \u003ca href=\"https://calmatters.org/newsletter/legislators-return-the-future-of-work-recycling-crisis-ucs-shrouded-side-door-and-segregated-schools/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">obtained by CalMatters\u003c/a>, that labor groups had been presenting to industry advocates seeking a carve-out.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Industries as varied as trucking and health care also \u003ca href=\"https://calmatters.org/economy/2019/06/california-dynamex-gig-worker-classification-independent-contractors-uber-lyft-strippers-truckers-freelancers/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">pushed back\u003c/a>, arguing that the legislation would rewrite the rules for independent workers whose status has worked for them for decades.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“AB 5 does not take into account the more than 70,000 California truckers who have built their business around the independent owner-operator model, invested hundreds of thousands of dollars in their trucks and have made the decision to run their own businesses,” Shawn Yadon, CEO of the California Trucking Association, said before the bill passed.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Hospitals, too, are worried the bill will not only cause confusion but may have the unintended consequence of delaying patient services. Gail Blanchard-Saiger, vice president of labor and employment at the California Hospital Association, said although doctors, psychologists and podiatrists are exempt from AB 5 and hospitals employ more than 90% of their workforce, many medical professionals such as physical therapists and certified registered nurse anesthetists are contracted at small and rural hospitals where volume is low.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“The impact on the hospital for these health professionals is probably a delay in services and in particular rural communities maybe a reduction in services,” said Blanchard-Saiger.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c!-- iframe plugin v.4.3 wordpress.org/plugins/iframe/ -->\u003cbr>\n\u003ciframe src=\"https://e.infogram.com/0bd989ed-c681-49aa-bb02-7e2149aa76b5?src=embed\" title=\"AB 5: Who's exempt\" width=\"550\" height=\"1610\" scrolling=\"no\" frameborder=\"0\" style=\"border:none;\" allowfullscreen=\"allowfullscreen\" class=\"iframe-class\">\u003c/iframe>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Among the other health professionals not exempt under AB 5: occupational therapist, speech therapist, optometrist, nurse practitioner, physician assistant, radiation therapist, licensed professional clinical counselor, marriage and family therapist, licensed clinical social workers, respiratory therapists, audiology.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>In the final weeks of the legislative session, gig companies unsuccessfully campaigned heavily for a new, first-in-the-nation framework that would allow their workers to remain independent while offering a wage floor and some kind of bargaining tool. And on Tuesday, Newsom told The Wall Street Journal that he is still talking to Lyft and Uber “and regardless of what happens with AB 5, I am committed, at least, to continuing those negotiations.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The San Francisco Chronicle \u003ca href=\"https://www.sfchronicle.com/business/article/Uber-circulates-new-gig-work-bill-as-alternative-14426247.php?utm_campaign=CMS%20Sharing%20Tools%20(Premium)&utm_source=t.co&utm_medium=referral\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">reported\u003c/a> potential legislation calling for a new category of workers — to be known as “network drivers” — to cover rideshare and delivery service drivers, guaranteeing at least 1.27 times minimum wage, reimbursement of 30 cents a mile and contributing 4% to a Drivers Benefits Fund to purchase workers compensation insurance and other benefits.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Uber and Lyft say the codification of the Dynamex decision — that established a three-part test for certifying contractors — will force them to \u003ca href=\"https://calmatters.org/economy/2019/09/what-happens-to-uber-and-lyft-drivers-once-ab-5-passes/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">fundamentally change\u003c/a> their hiring practices. It likely means the rideshare industry will take on fewer drivers and assign shifts, giving drivers less flexibility.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Labor representatives called it a scare tactic and said nothing prevents companies from maintaining flexibility for workers.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>During debate before the Senate vote, Republicans sought to include hostile amendments aimed at expanding exemptions for newspapers, physical therapists, the timber industry and more. Each was tabled by Democrats who control both houses of the Legislature.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Gonzalez, however, did agree to exempt the newspaper industry from converting carriers for one year.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“While I personally disagree with this delay, I’m willing to allow the newspaper industry the additional year to comply if it means those delivery drivers and nearly a million other misclassified workers are provided the minimum wage, benefits and workplace rights of Assembly Bill 5,” she said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>A few industries did get the exemption they sought, such as builders and contractors. Peter Tateishi, CEO of the Associated General Contractors of California, said his organization ended up backing the bill after being allowed to contract with other contractors under a business-to-business carve-out.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\u003c/div>",

"content": "\u003cp>\u003cem>This post has been updated.\u003c/em>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>A landmark bill, which would offer new wage and benefit protections to workers in California's gig economy and a host of other industries, is headed to the governor's desk.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003ca href=\"http://leginfo.legislature.ca.gov/faces/billNavClient.xhtml?bill_id=201920200AB5\">Assembly Bill 5 \u003c/a>sailed through the state Assembly on Wednesday by a vote of 56-15, just over 12 hours after its late-night approval in the Senate, a major victory for labor advocates and a stinging defeat for the tech companies that staunchly opposed it.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Democratic Gov. Gavin Newsom, who was initially on the fence, endorsed the bill earlier this month and has committed to signing it.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>AB 5 could impact upward of a million workers in a \u003ca href=\"https://calmatters.org/economy/2019/09/whos-in-whos-out-of-ab-5/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">wide swath of industries\u003c/a> beyond just the gig economy, from general contractors to truck drivers to \u003ca href=\"https://www.kqed.org/news/11737567/strippers-clash-over-employment-status-in-dueling-l-a-protests\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">strippers\u003c/a>.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Under a \u003ca href=\"https://scocal.stanford.edu/opinion/dynamex-operations-west-inc-v-superior-court-34584\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">2018 state Supreme Court decision\u003c/a>, workers who perform core functions of a business must be classified as employees and not contractors. The decision established a simple three-part criteria, known as \u003ca href=\"https://www.kqed.org/news/11769741/is-the-gig-up-what-dynamex-means-for-the-future-of-contracting-in-california\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">the ABC test\u003c/a>, to determine a worker's employment status.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>AB 5, which would go into effect Jan. 1, codifies that decision. Labor advocates say that even though the Dynamex decision is already law, many companies have been flouting it. The measure would ensure that workers would not have to file suit on a case-by-case basis to seek enforcement.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"There’s a whole bunch of things that they’re currently being cheated out of, frankly,\" said Steve Smith with the California Labor Federation. \"With respect to Uber and Lyft, it’s the exploitation they subject their workers to on a daily basis. Many of these workers are not receiving minimum wage. They are misclassified as contractors when they actually should be considered employees, meaning there’s a whole host of benefits they’re not getting that they should get like everyone else.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>In steering more workers to employee status, the bill would force companies to offer basic worker protections that contractors don't currently receive, such as guaranteed minimum wage, overtime pay, contributions to Social Security and Medicare, and unemployment and disability insurance. Those workers would also be eligible for workers’ compensation and sick and family leave and would be protected from discrimination at work, none of which are currently afforded to contractors.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"It’s a really important bill. States all over the country are watching to see what happens,\" said Veena Dubal, a UC Hastings employment law professor, who spent several years representing San Francisco taxi drivers. \"It’s pretty clear that most workers in the gig economy need labor and employment law protections under California law. ... It's vital that we have legal analysis that is clear both to businesses and workers so there's less ambiguity.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>State Sen. María Elena Durazo, D-Los Angeles, said that for too long companies like Uber and Lyft have skirted labor laws and taken advantage of workers.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[aside postID=\"news_11769741,news_11772787,news_11772467\" label=\"Regulating the Gig Economy\"]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“These so-called gig companies present themselves as the innovative future of tomorrow,\" she said. \"A future where companies don’t pay Social Security or Medicare, workers' compensation or unemployment insurance.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Business advocates and other opponents of the measure warn that it will dramatically increase labor costs in California and push companies to move elsewhere, with dire consequences for the state’s economy. Many critics, including some workers whose employment status would change, also say it would take away the desired flexibility that being classified as an independent contractor offers.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"We have a completely different economy,\" said Jennifer Barrera, executive vice president of the California Chamber of Commerce. \"We have a huge group of individuals who really value their flexibility and control over their own schedule, and I don’t think it has to be one or the other.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>It's a sentiment echoed by state Sen. Shannon Grove, R-Bakersfield, who said many people prefer the freedom that contract work gives them. She also criticized the measure for penalizing some industries but leaving others out.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"This Legislature should not be in the business of picking favorites, which is exactly what this legislation does,\" she said on Tuesday night, following the rejection of 12 sets of Republican-sponsored amendments that would have added carve-outs for additional professions.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Newspaper delivery drivers, many of whom are currently classified as independent contractors, would also be impacted by the legislation, although as part of a last-minute Senate compromise Tuesday evening, implementation for them will be delayed for a year.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Tech companies in particular have been left out of the exemptions, despite heavy lobbying efforts late in the session to gain a carve-out. Uber, Lyft and DoorDash have subsequently begun to fund a potential initiative for the 2020 ballot that would create a third classification for their workers.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>In a news conference on Wednesday, Tony West, Uber's chief legal officer, said the company doesn't consider drivers, who are independent contractors, to be a core part of its business model, and would continue pushing for a better compromise. The company serves \"as a technology platform for several different types of digital marketplaces,\" he said, adding that it is \"no stranger to legal battles.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"Today, drivers have control over when, where and how they work. They can choose to work for any of our competitors at the same time, and many do,\" West said. \"This would all change dramatically if they were employees. We will continue to defend the innovation that makes that kind of choice, flexibility, and independence a reality for over 200,000 drivers in California.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The state estimates it loses at least \u003ca href=\"https://doc-0o-2c-apps-viewer.googleusercontent.com/viewer/secure/pdf/5kl0815j43d7pmccu5rm1nkdu5n97vtk/k78ohtjvmpriqu94toehk5vasugk1or8/1561398375000/gmail/12954669112312320069/ACFrOgCqTnPx2m9ygcyL_K7HjnqRWqbcoV4Y7z8aWyyKuEzX_tSdhj74hCCpDeNj8FN7h9FivoRreI\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">$7 billion\u003c/a> a year in payroll tax revenue due to worker misclassification — money that could be supporting schools, roads and other public services. And by avoiding unemployment insurance taxes and workers’ compensation premiums, businesses shift the burden to the state when workers get laid off, sick or injured on the job.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"These billion-dollar companies can complain, but we have to ask ourselves as taxpayers: Should we subsidize their business by subsidizing their workers?\" said Democratic Assemblywoman Lorena Gonzalez, a former labor organizer from San Diego who introduced the bill.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Gonzalez dismisses the idea, often touted by opponents, that Uber and Lyft will flee California if forced to reclassify their workers as employees. More likely, she predicts, these companies will make the changes required by law because there’s a massive market for transporting individuals and goods in California, the fifth-largest economy in the world.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>And if they can’t swing it, she added, then someone else will.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cem>Additional reporting contributed by CalMatters' Judy Lin and KQED's Matthew Green. \u003c/em>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[ad fullwidth]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[ad floatright]\u003c/p>\n",

Gavin Newsom, who was initially on the fence, endorsed the bill earlier this month and has committed to signing it.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>AB 5 could impact upward of a million workers in a \u003ca href=\"https://calmatters.org/economy/2019/09/whos-in-whos-out-of-ab-5/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">wide swath of industries\u003c/a> beyond just the gig economy, from general contractors to truck drivers to \u003ca href=\"https://www.kqed.org/news/11737567/strippers-clash-over-employment-status-in-dueling-l-a-protests\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">strippers\u003c/a>.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Under a \u003ca href=\"https://scocal.stanford.edu/opinion/dynamex-operations-west-inc-v-superior-court-34584\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">2018 state Supreme Court decision\u003c/a>, workers who perform core functions of a business must be classified as employees and not contractors. The decision established a simple three-part criteria, known as \u003ca href=\"https://www.kqed.org/news/11769741/is-the-gig-up-what-dynamex-means-for-the-future-of-contracting-in-california\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">the ABC test\u003c/a>, to determine a worker's employment status.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>AB 5, which would go into effect Jan. 1, codifies that decision. Labor advocates say that even though the Dynamex decision is already law, many companies have been flouting it. The measure would ensure that workers would not have to file suit on a case-by-case basis to seek enforcement.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"There’s a whole bunch of things that they’re currently being cheated out of, frankly,\" said Steve Smith with the California Labor Federation. \"With respect to Uber and Lyft, it’s the exploitation they subject their workers to on a daily basis. Many of these workers are not receiving minimum wage. They are misclassified as contractors when they actually should be considered employees, meaning there’s a whole host of benefits they’re not getting that they should get like everyone else.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>In steering more workers to employee status, the bill would force companies to offer basic worker protections that contractors don't currently receive, such as guaranteed minimum wage, overtime pay, contributions to Social Security and Medicare, and unemployment and disability insurance. Those workers would also be eligible for workers’ compensation and sick and family leave and would be protected from discrimination at work, none of which are currently afforded to contractors.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"It’s a really important bill. States all over the country are watching to see what happens,\" said Veena Dubal, a UC Hastings employment law professor, who spent several years representing San Francisco taxi drivers. \"It’s pretty clear that most workers in the gig economy need labor and employment law protections under California law. ... It's vital that we have legal analysis that is clear both to businesses and workers so there's less ambiguity.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>State Sen. María Elena Durazo, D-Los Angeles, said that for too long companies like Uber and Lyft have skirted labor laws and taken advantage of workers.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\u003c/div>",

Many critics, including some workers whose employment status would change, also say it would take away the desired flexibility that being classified as an independent contractor offers.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"We have a completely different economy,\" said Jennifer Barrera, executive vice president of the California Chamber of Commerce. \"We have a huge group of individuals who really value their flexibility and control over their own schedule, and I don’t think it has to be one or the other.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>It's a sentiment echoed by state Sen. Shannon Grove, R-Bakersfield, who said many people prefer the freedom that contract work gives them. She also criticized the measure for penalizing some industries but leaving others out.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"This Legislature should not be in the business of picking favorites, which is exactly what this legislation does,\" she said on Tuesday night, following the rejection of 12 sets of Republican-sponsored amendments that would have added carve-outs for additional professions.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Newspaper delivery drivers, many of whom are currently classified as independent contractors, would also be impacted by the legislation, although as part of a last-minute Senate compromise Tuesday evening, implementation for them will be delayed for a year.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Tech companies in particular have been left out of the exemptions, despite heavy lobbying efforts late in the session to gain a carve-out. Uber, Lyft and DoorDash have subsequently begun to fund a potential initiative for the 2020 ballot that would create a third classification for their workers.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>In a news conference on Wednesday, Tony West, Uber's chief legal officer, said the company doesn't consider drivers, who are independent contractors, to be a core part of its business model, and would continue pushing for a better compromise. The company serves \"as a technology platform for several different types of digital marketplaces,\" he said, adding that it is \"no stranger to legal battles.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"Today, drivers have control over when, where and how they work. They can choose to work for any of our competitors at the same time, and many do,\" West said. \"This would all change dramatically if they were employees.

More likely, she predicts, these companies will make the changes required by law because there’s a massive market for transporting individuals and goods in California, the fifth-largest economy in the world.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>And if they can’t swing it, she added, then someone else will.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cem>Additional reporting contributed by CalMatters' Judy Lin and KQED's Matthew Green. \u003c/em>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\u003c/div>",

He usually leaves the windows down when he drives, letting his passengers enjoy the crisp mountain breeze and the scent of pine trees.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"They love the fresh air,” Cooney said. “I say, 'Is that too much wind on you?' 'No, we love it.' So I say, 'OK!' \"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Driving for Uber gives Cooney a chance to meet riders from all over the country. He said a typical ride lasts about 10 to 15 minutes, long enough to strike up a conversation about where people are from.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"I tell them I've been here about 20 years, I'm originally from New Orleans,” he said, his accent starting to come through. “They want to talk about the restaurants, the music, the food. So we carry on a conversation.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[ad fullwidth]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Cooney may be reaching an age when workers in previous eras would consider retirement. But he said he has no plans to stop driving anytime soon.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>He previously worked as a concierge at a local timeshare, but he said his boss was pushy. So in 2016, he switched to Uber. It was easy to sign up, and he liked the idea of not having a boss at all.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"I set my own hours,” Cooney said. “I work when I want to work. And so far it's been working for me. I've been able to pay my bills.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>But Cooney said Uber drivers in South Lake Tahoe have to deal with one major challenge: Demand is highly seasonal. Tourists swarm this resort town in the summer, and they come to hit the slopes in the winter.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>During the offseasons, Cooney will have long dry spells when he hardly gets any riders. This past May, \"I was lucky to make $20 or $30 a day,” he said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>He has just entered another down spell. “After Labor Day, it will start slowing down and it will be slow until Thanksgiving,” Cooney said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cfigure id=\"attachment_11773131\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\" style=\"max-width: 1920px\">\u003cimg class=\"size-full wp-image-11773131\" src=\"https://ww2.kqed.org/news/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2019/09/Tahoe-Uber-Car-e1568052171231.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"1920\" height=\"1440\">\u003cfigcaption class=\"wp-caption-text\">Uber drivers in South Lake Tahoe see demand spike during tourist seasons, and plummet at other times of year. \u003ccite>(David Wagner/KPCC)\u003c/cite>\u003c/figcaption>\u003c/figure>\n\u003cp>Still, Cooney thinks the flexibility of driving for Uber makes it a pretty good job for older people. This part of California has a high percentage of seniors. El Dorado County’s median age of nearly 46 is the fourth highest in the state.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The gig economy can be a fallback for those struggling to find other employment, but gig jobs are not always lucrative for older workers.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Diamond, the Stanford economist, co-authored \u003ca href=\"https://web.stanford.edu/~diamondr/OldUberPP.pdf\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">a recent study\u003c/a> that broke down earnings for Uber drivers by age. The researchers found that 60-year-old drivers earn nearly 10% less per hour than 30-year-old drivers on average.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>That’s not because Uber pays younger and older drivers differently.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“Obviously, the Uber formula for pay is the same for all workers,” Diamond said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[pullquote size=\"medium\" align=\"right\" citation=\"Rebecca Diamond, a Stanford University economist\"]'It could have a lot of beneficial job characteristics.

Younger drivers are more concentrated in cities, where demand is higher.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Timing is important too. Older drivers tend to avoid working late at night, when demand can peak with people hailing rides home from bars.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Diamond said these pay disparities make sense, based on where and when older drivers tend to work. But the gap is still notable, because it’s the exact opposite of what happens in more traditional jobs, where there’s a norm that older employees earn more than younger workers.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Older drivers get no such premium on Uber.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"It could have a lot of beneficial job characteristics,” Diamond said. “But the pay may be very different than what the workers had been experiencing in their longer-term jobs.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Khymberleigh Levin, 58, said she was surprised to hear that younger drivers out-earn older ones on Uber.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"I think I drive just as much as a young driver does,\" said Levin.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>She drives part time in South Lake Tahoe, but said she focuses on times with high demand, often driving until 2 a.m. on the weekends. She doesn't feel like she's putting in less effort than younger drivers.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Levin said it would be impractical to chase higher demand by driving all the way to a larger city, such as Sacramento or San Francisco.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[aside postID=\"news_11719321,news_11660885,news_11508374\" label=\"Challenges for drivers\"]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"Would it really pay?\" Levin asked. \"You're paying for your gas there, wear and tear on your car, and a hotel there because you can't drive back. So I haven't really thought of it. Also, to be honest, I feel a lot safer here than I would in a big city.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Uber declined to comment for this story. But in the past, the company has pitched itself to older workers as a great way to make extra money, stay socially engaged and control your own schedule.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>It once \u003ca href=\"https://press.aarp.org/2015-07-30-Life-Reimagined-Announces-Collaboration-with-Uber-to-Offer-New-Income-Opportunities-to-Members\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">directly recruited older drivers\u003c/a>, offering a $35 incentive to new drivers who signed up through an AARP subsidiary.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Keith Cooney said he understands why older drivers like him can end up earning less.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“I know that if I were to work from midnight to 3 in the morning, that's when people really make a lot of money,” Cooney said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>He used to work that late when he first started driving.

He usually leaves the windows down when he drives, letting his passengers enjoy the crisp mountain breeze and the scent of pine trees.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"They love the fresh air,” Cooney said. “I say, 'Is that too much wind on you?' 'No, we love it.' So I say, 'OK!' \"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Driving for Uber gives Cooney a chance to meet riders from all over the country. He said a typical ride lasts about 10 to 15 minutes, long enough to strike up a conversation about where people are from.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"I tell them I've been here about 20 years, I'm originally from New Orleans,” he said, his accent starting to come through. “They want to talk about the restaurants, the music, the food.

Younger drivers are more concentrated in cities, where demand is higher.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Timing is important too.
