Too much "employer" like power, and yet they want us to pretend we are independent contractors so they enjoy the tax benefits.
There was a state meeting?

One organization is already in trouble for trying to prevent an official from belonging to other organizations. If the member chooses to move forward with a lawsuit the member is pretty much guaranteed to win, but the monetary award (absent a punitive award) would not cover lawyers fees.
