Uber & Lyft are cheating on New York City’s minimum wage rules. The apps have used driver “lockouts” to scam drivers out of fair pay, leaving thousands on the brink of homelessness. Uber is also petitioning the city to cut driver pay next year to avoid the law. We won’t let them!
At last week's rallies in Miami and Orlando, rideshare drivers and delivery workers called on @GovRonDeSantis to take action against illegal and fake driver accounts that are jeopardizing the safety of Floridians.

📢NEW: @NYCMayor just announced that Uber will begin reducing rideshare driver lockouts effective immediately - with the plan to eliminate them completely by early September.
Lockouts are devastating for NYC's 80,000 Uber & Lyft drivers. Our statement on today's news:
IDG is fighting back against Uber and Lyft’s unfair lockouts in New York City, demanding Uber and our leaders end this crisis. "We are not just drivers. We are an essential part of this community," says member Khalid Khattack. Join us is in demanding an end to the lockouts!
On May Day, Illinois app workers went on strike to demand an end to unfair deactivations.
We're calling for a Driver Resource Center to review deactivation cases, a process to give reactivated drivers back pay, & more!
@BradshawFe6557 @StandWithJFAW@lyft Hey Felicia, I'm with IDG Chicago and we can help you with that issue. Come into our office!
