I wonder how much pain California and New York are in for with this census. It is not just about how many congresscritters they can keep, it’s also about federal funding.

2020 census data used for state and local redistricting are set to be released by March 31, 2021. Sad that it takes so long.

Yep, same thing forced me into my own business here in NY. Wages stopped going up, cost of living kept going up.

Death to the self-employed. Strength to the unions.

“This industry isn’t well suited to having employees, because the work isn’t steady,” Garibay said. “And the contractors I have working for me have their own businesses as well, and they’re moms with kids—they left full-time employment to be able to have the freedom to work as a contractor.”

That's how I worked for 30 years, which as a mom, gave me maximum flexibiilty while raising a family and still working for multinational companies. I thought the state sales taxes were bad in my state; but this CA bill is outright killing the American Dream.

Note they only give a crap about women. If a bill hurts men, which this one does too but no one cares, then no problem.

When men get pregnant, nurse babies and do the daycare and school runs equally while working for a living, you can complain.

So it’s OK if it hurts men?

I think they're pointing out the hypocrisy of the progressives, who always claim women as their special empowerment project.
