DoorDash has ripped off more than 260,000 NYC delivery workers. We’re making them pay $131.5 million — the largest worker settlement in City history. This is New York, where hard work pays and greed will cost you.
DoorDash messed up.
They repeatedly left more than 260,000 NYC delivery workers underpaid or paid late, causing them immense stress and financial difficulty.
That's unacceptable.
We've secured a $131.5M settlement from
DoorDash - the largest worker settlement in NYC history and largest delivery worker settlement in
American municipal history.
Every worker will be paid what they are owed, and every company will be forced to abide by the laws of this city.

House Speaker Mike Johnson has come under scrutiny as he seemingly opts for an unconventional approach to navigating the challenges of leadership in Congress: canceling scheduled business and sending legislators home. His strategy raises pressing questions about accountability and the constitutional responsibilities that Congress members hold. In 2026, the House of Representatives has seen a noteworthy trend under Johnson's leadership, with the cancelation of 28 scheduled voting days, leaving only a handful for actual legislation.
