Join us on this episode of DriveThruHR as we sit down with Kim Kavin, (X)co-founder of the Fight For Freelancers coalition and a leading voice in the movement to protect the rights of independent contractors. Kim shares her journey into advocacy and offers sharp insights into the challenges posed by sectoral organizing and freelance-busting legislation, such as California’s AB5, the Massachusetts ballot measure, and the PRO Act. We’ll explore why these legislative efforts have sparked such fierce debates, what they mean for the future of freelance work, and how policymakers can find balanced, bipartisan solutions.
