Quick summary:

1. When the legislative working group of the Freelance Solidarity Project and National Writers Union met last September, getting the Freelance Isn't Free Act passed through the New York state legislature seemed like it should be a slam dunk.

3. Eric Thurm is the campaign coordinator for the National Writers Union, and the communications chair of the Freelance Solidarity Project
