App workers are essential. Now, we’re forming our union to make sure we’re treated like we are.

      We protested at HQ, worked with elected leaders, emailed executives, & more to get Uber, Lyft, etc to follow the law & treat us fairly. They continue to steal from drivers & taxpayers. On Wednesday, we're going to the CEO's house to say enough. Join us: https://www.wedriveprogress.org/rsvp pic.twitter.com/1TquDP7jtd

      In a recent survey (https://bit.ly/2WIQSTO ), 71% of drivers said they couldn't afford an emergency expense of $400 right now. Still drivers have organized our own PPE distribution to keep each other safe while these companies do little to help us survive http://bit.ly/3e8IswC pic.twitter.com/g0sLvyPpl4

      83% of drivers reported needed emergency funds to cover bills, food, and other necessities. How can the CEO of any company who not only allows this, but is actively part of a $110 mil campaign to deny people basic rights, sleep at night? @dkhos #ProtectDriversNotCEOspic.twitter.com/6UtqVdervH

      We Drive Progress Retweeted Gig Workers Rising

      Uber & Lyft has ignored how drivers, who are largely people of color, struggle to survive the COVID pandemic. We were proud to join @GigWorkersRise in calling out the companies' hypocritical statements on BLM.https://twitter.com/GigWorkersRise/status/1275157377180823552 …

      We Drive Progress added,

      Gig Workers Rising @GigWorkersRise
      This follows an open letter published on Juneteenth which nearly 500 drivers have signed. It calls out hypocritical BLM gig co statements in light of the fact that drivers, significant portions of whom are POC, are not treated w/ respect by gig platforms. https://medium.com/@catalina.brennan.gatica/sign-on-open-letter-to-gig-companies-regarding-black-lives-matter-4b48420e238d …

      It's not just drivers Uber/Lyft steal from—their hands are in the pockets of every CA taxpayer. If app companies lawfully treated us as employees they'd have paid $413 mil to CA's UI fund from 2014-2019—funds CA desperately needs.

      SF DA @chesaboudin recently sued DoorDash for failure to follow AB5, denying workers minimum wage, overtime pay, and more just like @Uber does. On Wednesday, we'll hang a banner outside Dara's mansion to let the world know that a thief lives there.https://www.theverge.com/2020/6/16/21293474/doordash-sf-district-attorney-lawsuit-worker-misclassification …
