Rallied with @nytwa.bsky.social and @workersjusticep.bsky.social to pass two essential bills protecting Uber & Lyft drivers and deliveristas from unjust firing and arbitrary app deactivations. Our city’s immigrant workers deserve dignity and the same labor protections afforded to all New Yorkers.

GrubHub & Doordash delivery workers face the same unfair treatment as Uber & Lyft drivers. Gig companies treat workers as disposable and fire us without cause or recourse. STOP unfair deactivations now!
