YouTube Description
as posted by the channelHere in California, AB-5 is about to put 70,000 independent truckers out of business, along with hundreds of thousands of others who currently freelance for a living. On this episode of the podcast National Review writer Will Swaim joins me to explain exactly how this travesty has gotten this far, and what it will mean for the country if the war against the gig economy spreads elsewhere, which it seems poised to do.
I also check in with Tom Odom, whose story should frighten anyone who owns anything that’s ever been on a truck. (That would be you.) The implications of this monumental attack on our freedom, to earn a living - and on our supply chain - are far reaching. Please give it a listen, and share.
PS. The article I mentioned is here, and worth your time.
