Be clear on what set the stage for this victory over a law that belongs among most infamous legal attacks on working people of color. The no-gimmick union organizing work of @_drivers_united in general & its massive fight vs Prop 22 specifically. Along with those in solidarity.
#Prop22Unconstitutional:
"It appears only to protect the economic interest of the network companies in having a divided, ununionized workforce"

Bay Area driver @_drivers_united in this smart, thorough article about sectoral bargaining, capitalism @Uber@lyft, and people power.

NEW: Drivers are exposing Uber and Lyft’s business model. It’s built on deception, control, and false promises.
They operate "a lot like a drug dealer,” one driver said.
But the PRO Act would change that and restore power to workers.
It’s clear that as soon as Prop 22 passed, it was open season to start cutting my pay again. I can’t keep doing this at this pay...what they are choosing to pay me isn’t reliable any more and it’s getting lower.” https://t.co/JAPpYk8qlA
