California AB5 is the state law that declares that most workers are employees and not independent contractors. Now the hiring party has the burden of proof to demonstrate that someone is an independent contractor. Many thousands of people lost their primary or secondary source of income due to this obscene government intrusion into private enterprise.
Makes sense from his point of view since it consolidates wealth into massive corps that have thousands of employees. As a large singular object such entities are easier to shake down for funds or to push into whatever direction the political winds are blowing.
Edit: Unionization (often forced) is a common vehicle for this
It's astounding Unions are seen as a progressive thing. They disenfranchise voters and individual workers, and were originally founded to basically prevent black people and immigrants from getting work.

As with most things, so called progressives only see at surface level.
Don't forget: Take this injection or lose your job.
Biden wants to know what decade it is. The people pulling his strings want to make AB5-style employment laws nationwide.
