Check your contracts, taxes, and status before this passes.
Perhaps some California docs can chime in and let us know what happened after this. They were playing some strange word games in their recruiting out there, calling it "independent employee status" or some such BS to try and skirt the law but I haven't looked at it closely because I'd probably rather live and work in Syria than California. At any rate I can't imagine that the IRS would be amused by that when April 15th rolled around and you filed your 1040.
Mind you, I don't necessarily think this is a bad thing, reclassification as W2 employees with or without unionization may be the best chance we have of getting rid of CMGs.
