Look at how many professions (which seem to include freelance writers and editors like me) the Senate Labor Committee Chairman now wants to protect from the ABC Test rule After NJDOL and Governor Sherrill just told us all that nothing changed and we don't have to worry

“Michael Edwards, senior vice president of carrier insurance broker Gallager, said there's little scope for a motor carrier using an owner-operator driver to avoid violating the [ABC] test's B prong since it looks at whether a worker is performing a service outside of an employer's normal course of business. "The B prong is impossible to avoid,” Edwards said. To comply with the law, an owner-operator would have to start carrying their own liability insurance instead of being under the motor carrier’s existing coverage, Edwards said. Insurance premiums to cover a single owner-operator’s truck would be much higher than for a larger pool of trucks under a motor carrier, if coverage could be found. “That would be a nightmare,” Edwards said. “Insurance costs would triple.” joc.com/article/ny-nj-port-t…
