Employers are devastating workers' livelihoods and taking no responsibility for the callous decisions of this unchecked technology. We need stronger guardrails to make sure there is human review and oversight of any decision made by a machine that impacts a worker's job and paycheck.AI Verified source (2026)

Quote attributed to Lorena Gonzalez (President, California Federation of Labor Unions, AFL-CIO), from Senator McNerney's Feb 2026 press release for the No Robo Bosses Act of 2026 (SB 947). The source_url (sd05.senate.ca.gov) returned HTTP 403 to direct WebFetch, but a web search confirmed the quote verbatim on that exact release and corroborating coverage: "Employers are devastating workers' livelihoods... We need stronger guardrails to make sure there is human review and oversight of any decision made by a machine that impacts a worker's job and paycheck." Attribution correct, year 2026, relevant. Vote "for" on statement 390 (ban fully automated hiring decisions without human review) aligns: Gonzalez explicitly calls for mandatory human review/oversight of automated decisions affecting workers' jobs.
