Teachers, faculty, and student workers at @RutgersU have been fighting for nearly a year for a contract. As a proud Rutgers alum I stand with these 9,000+ workers in their fight for fair pay and better benefits. A fair deal helps all Scarlet Knights.

Today @TowardsJustice w/ 3 drivers (who are members of @_drivers_united) are suing for control of pay & autonomy from Lyft & Uber. Price fixing is illegal. Drivers are either independent or employees. Uber & Lyft can’t have it both ways.

With a federal labor law that is so weak and that leaves out so many workers, it is great to see the kind of creative lawyering that @TowardsJustice and @daveyseligman are so good at. We need to find new ways to help drivers build countervailing power. nytimes.com/2022/06/21/busin…

Ruth Bader Ginsburg came to Rutgers as a meticulous, soft-spoken professor teaching dry subjects. She left a nationally recognized scholar and civil rights advocate on the path to the Supreme Court, prof. @PDavidLopez writes @njdotcom.
