Chief Executive, California Business and Industrial Alliance
Manzo started the Sunland-based trade organization in 2017 in opposition to California’s Private Attorney General Act (PAGA). CABIA sued the state, arguing PAGA was unconstitutional. In addition, the organization opposed AB 5, the law that defined independent contractors as employees. Manzo has become one of the leading advocates for labor law reform and has been cited in numerous articles and opinion pieces, made national TV appearances and testified on behalf of business owners in front of numerous legislators. His firm recently launched CABIA HR to help employers ensure that their policies and procedures comply with federal and state laws.
