@Ford Will this shift knob work when it's above 80 degrees or so? Because mine won't, and I am stuck in a parking lot and am super unhappy.

[Fight For Freelancers - Illinois @FightIllinois]

@Ford for the second time in a month, I am stuck in a parking lot because the shift knob on my 2020 escape hybrid won't turn. Super annoyed.

The @EconomicPolicy line on the #PROact #ABCtest is that #AB5's issues were from Covid. Then why did the @SanJoseJazz festival announce its closing pre-pandemic, pre-exemption? The people covered by the #ABCtest don't want this. #FightForFreelancers

One reason there are so many freelancers is that traditional media is in trouble, and unions can't always help. @SenatorDurbin, @SenDuckworth, please support the efforts of freelancers to stay independent. Remove the #ABCtest from the #PROAct.

The #ABCtest in the #PROAct not only hurts contractors, it hurts businesses that use them. Small businesses looking for advice or help with a short-term project will suffer. @SenatorDurbin, @SenDuckworth, remove the #ABCtest. #FightForFreelancers https://t.co/AAAi0MbS4I
