As a frequent consumer of the services Uber and Lyft as well as grocery delivery services, I fail to see the problems that the state, through AB5, is solving. However, by forcing these business out, they are limiting my rights as a disabled person. Nobody looks out for my needs. And no, there are no services government provides that are an any comperable.

Huerta has just pushed me to the yes side for sure!

Viva la movida! No on 22! Those companies must be doing quite well for them to spend that amount of money to defeat this Prop! Hell with them!

Companies are not exempt from complying with California law. That is illegal Alma. You obviously do not own a business. The right to be an independent contractor should be left to the individual worker, not dictated by the state which cannot even supply the citizens with its basic needs and services. If I wish to independently contract my skills and services to multiple businesses, that is my right, not Huertas or yours to say otherwise.
