Legal ramifications of Prop 22 and Norfolk Southern sued by state of Ohio
Legal ramifications of Prop 22
Prop 22 was specifically for Uber and Lyft drivers and then for organizations like DoorDash. Now that it has at least temporarily been upheld by an appellate court, what does that do for the aspects of Prop 22 that touch the transportation industry.
Clarify this - Prop 22 was voted on by the state as a way to stop AB5 - which is a law that has not been adjudicated yet and certainly will be.

Obviously this can go to the state supreme court and then the US Supreme Court and probably will.
