New from me:
I fully understand how incredible these findings appear to be, but it is fair to say that 99% of all written public comments are opposed to New Jersey’s proposed independent-contractor rule.
Here's the breakdown.

Our response to the NJ DOL proposed IC rule:
This proposed rule is a direct attack on everyone’s fundamental freedom to earn a living as an entrepreneur, promulgated in remorseless defiance of our nation’s promise of liberty and the pursuit of happiness.

This public comment opposing New Jersey's proposed independent-contractor rule shows that harm is already occurring—particularly to women.

New Jersey state Senator John Burzichelli, a Democrat, adds his voice to the bipartisan chorus calling on NJDOL to rethink its proposed independent-contractor rule.
He's the 18th legislator in Trenton that I'm aware of who has spoken out as of this morning.

State and federal regulators—even when they look for years—can't seem to find nearly as much misclassification as the freelance busters claim exists.
I find myself asking a question that I learned as a kid by watching TV commercials...

Kim is an independent worker who chooses when and where to work—that’s her American Dream. But outdated labor laws block her and millions like her from accessing benefits like health care and retirement.
It’s time to modernize our laws for today’s workforce.

“As I testified in May, my top recommendation is to give independent contractors meaningful seats at all of the policymaking tables.
“This is what it looks like when some of the most powerful lawmakers in the country actually listen.”

This is the video they played live on @nj1015 this morning.
I'm hearing there was so much audience outrage about NJDOL trying to hurt independent contractors that the station will be talking about the topic again tomorrow a.m.

Tune in tomorrow at 8:10 a.m. Yours truly will be on drive time all across New Jersey with our biggest talk-radio station, giving the bureaucrats in Trenton the public flogging that they deserve for this horrible proposed independent-contractor rule.

New Jersey's Labor Department didn't livestream its public hearing about the proposed independent-contractor rule, so we got our own video of the testimony—and just broadcast some of it on @RideshareRodeo
