Many experts – including Alice – are dedicated to bringing together elected officials, stakeholders, policy wonks, activists and issue experts to travel the High Road. Two groups -- the National Employment Law Project and the National Alliance for Fair Employment -- have mapped out the High Road for protecting contingent workers.  We'd like to thank these groups for mapping out the high road on contingent worker protection.

If you have any questions about protecting contingent workers in your state, we want to help.  You can either  Ask Alice or contact the top issue experts listed below.
