#463 | New Jersey vs. Independent Contractors

Today on the podcast, I’m joined by two incredible guests: Mike Hruby (https://x.com/venturemike1) and Kim Kavin (https://x.com/thekimkavin). Mike is a seasoned advocate for independent work and entrepreneurship, while Kim is a respected journalist and a passionate voice for freelancers' rights. Together, we dive deep into the alarming developments happening right now in New Jersey, where the state Labor Department has proposed a new independent-contractor rule that could drastically restrict the freedom of an estimated 1.7 million people who work as independent contractors, freelancers, self-employed individuals, and gig economy drivers for companies like Uber and DoorDash.
 
This episode unpacks what’s really at stake. While the proposed policies are being framed as protections, what the proposed NJDOL rule states is that it will not create any jobs. The fear is that ICs get wiped out and are left with nothing. that would strip people of the flexibility, autonomy, and control that make independent work so vital. Mike and Kim explain how similar policy-making. has played out in other states, and why this movement could have nationwide implications. It’s a critical conversation for anyone who values the freedom to choose how and when they work.
