H.Res. 1005 — Expressing the sense of the House of Representatives that creators and digital workers, as a distinct and growing class of small businesses and independent economic contributors, deserve fair treatment, transparency, and economic opportunity in the modern platform-based economy.

This section expresses the support of the House of Representatives for— (1) access to affordable, reliable, and portable health care options for creators and digital workers so that coverage is not dependent on a single employer or platform; (2) portable benefit systems and retirement plan options that allow digital workers to carry benefits across gigs and platforms; (3) clear, transparent, and predictable revenue-sharing terms between platforms and creators; (4) decentralized, opt-in, direct relationships between creators and audiences that enable creators to move between platforms without losing access to their audiences; (5) small business resources for creators and digital workers, transparency around platform algorithms that affect compensation and visibility, and protection against misclassification under existing Federal labor law; (6) timely, responsive customer support and clear appeal processes when platform actions materially affect creators’ or digital workers’ accounts, content, or income; and (7) transparency, consent, and accountability standards for the use of artificial intelligence and synthetic media that materially affect creators’ identities, reputations, or livelihoods.
