CTA in Action: Government Affairs Update
A federal district judge found the ABC test preempted by the FAAAA. This is a great development for us and strengthens our path to victory on litigation. However, we still have a ways to go and we are urging members to financially support our litigation efforts today.
The California legislature reconvened on December 3rd and two bills have already been introduced on the Dynamex issue. Most importantly, Asssemblymember Lorena Gonzalez introduced Assembly Bill 5 to codify the ABC test into state law.
The developments noted above clearly illustrate the importance of the CTA’s Dynamex lawsuit.
We will not be able to defeat the Dynamex Decision without your help.
