President Donald Trump’s former economic chief said Congress should require businesses to pay independent contractors out of work during the coronavirus crisis
President Donald Trump’s former economic chief said Sunday that Congress should require businesses to pay independent contractors out of work during the coronavirus crisis.
“Think of people that work at stadiums and arenas. Think of people that work in catering businesses. Think of Uber drivers and Lyft drivers. They need to get compensated as well,” Gary Cohn, Trump’s former chief economic adviser, said on CBS' “Face the Nation.”for unemployment insurance in a deal with the Trump administration. But that would not help workers classified as independent contractors, who are ineligible for unemployment benefits.
Cohn said the legislation should require businesses that hired contractors and part-time workers to “go back and look at what you were paying them for the last month, or the last two weeks, and you go back and pay them that exact amount of money.“
