That's not how I read the law or that link you sent. The way I read it, you have
to be paid on an HOURLY basis for those laws to apply (ie you have to be a w-2
contractor working on an hourly basis.)

That article from the NWU talks about how they're going to crush all the
recruiters and drive every last profit making company out of California.

Which is good for me I suppose, since many of them are (or should) moving to
Oregon.

NWU of California: Working hard to drive business to Oregon!
