Activists are urging Joe Biden to turn his focus to a recovery plan for the gig economy, saying there’s a moral and political imperative to help Americans who rely on short-term, on-demand contract jobs for their livelihoods.
Why it matters: “You’re missing voters that would be aligned with Biden,” said María Teresa Kumar, CEO of Voto Latino, who’s engaged the Biden campaign on this. “It’s not just young voters — it’s millions of African American and Latino voters that if you mention they’re part of this economy, it’d go a long way.”
