A Debate On CA Prop 22 & The Future Of Gig Worker Pay & Benefits

  On this edition of Your Call’s special election series, we're hosting a debate about Proposition 22, a ballot measure that would define California's app-based drivers as independent contractors, not employees.

Later in the program, we’ll find out what will happen to driver's pay if voters approve the ballot measure. What questions do you have about Proposition 22?

 

Guests:

David Cruz, president of the League of United Latin American Citizens Council #3288

 

Steve Smith, communications director for the California Labor Federation

Lauren Hepler, economy reporter at CALmatters
