On Monday, a California Superior Court judge ruled that Uber and Lyft should classify drivers as employees, not temporary contractors.

Axios Re:Cap producer Naomi Shavin discusses the ruling and what comes next with Mike Isaac of the New York Times and author of “Super Pumped: The Battle for Uber.”
