The main purpose of this legislation, known as the "Protect the Gig Economy Act of 2025," is to amend existing rules governing class action lawsuits in order to provide specific protections for gig economy workers and small businesses that primarily rely on independent contractors. The goal is to reduce the risk and financial burden associated with class action litigation for these groups. Key provisions of this legislation focus on modifying Rule 23 of the Federal Rules of Civil Procedure, which outlines the requirements for class action lawsuits.
