Episode 114: Franchisees Caught Between Trump And The State Of California

Election time is just around the corner - not 2020 - but 2019 - in five states and we’ll discuss both the local and national implications and how industry issues are playing into the mix. And California and the Trump Administration are at war again - this time over independent worker classification. We’ll talk with attorney Norman Leon of DLA Piper who represents the International Franchise Association on matter like this and he will sort it all out for us. And we’ll also be joined by Mark Freedman from the U.S Chamber of Commerce who will give us the latest and greatest on the EEO-1 pay data companies need to submit by September. We’ll talk about those stories and wrap it up with the legislative scorecard.
