With everything we do for companies like @Uber @Lyft @DoorDash & @Grubhub, we deserve to share our side of the story if we’re unfairly deactivated. We're fighting to give drivers a voice on the job – and we’re going to WIN! Join our movement ➡️ justiceforappworkers.org/joi…

As rideshare drivers, we risk our safety to serve you. But when we’re carjacked, assaulted, or worse, apps like @Uber & @Lyft don’t do a single thing to help us. Stand with us Chicago app drivers as we take on the app companies and win better working conditions!

Stand up Chicago! Rideshare drivers deserve basic rights, like safety on the job, a living wage, job security, and access to bathrooms. We are letting @Uber and @Lyft know that our demands CAN’T WAIT!

New York Uber and Lyft drivers with Justice for App Workers are outraged! Following a New York State Supreme Court judge’s decision to temporarily halt much-needed pay raises that Uber has sued to block, we are letting Uber know OUR RAISES CAN'T WAIT!

🚨In a Scrooge move, Uber has blocked a pay raise for NYC Uber Drivers just days before Christmas. 🚨 The raise, set to begin 12/19, was simply an adjustment to reflect increased expenses and inflation. Uber is fighting to essentially cut pay to below minimum wage. Bah humbug!

This outrageous & unfair to spend 1hr & 34mins with a rider & only get pay $35.28 including tip. SO they think drivers can survive in this economic crisis. Shame on the apps for the abuse. @Uber @lyft @StandWithJFAW @DrivingGuild @NYCDriversunite @UnionForDrivers

Companies like @Uber, @Doordash and @lyft need to cap their commissions. Corporate greed is keeping workers from making a decent wage.

Yesterday, we were joined by app workers from across NY for a general meeting to discuss fair wages, safer working conditions, and the right to form a union. The energy in the room was incredible, and we’re ready for the fight ahead! 🔥🔥🔥 If you missed it, take a look!

The @SBWorkersUnited and @AmazonLabor workers are super inspiring but it’s the gig workers who are blowing me away. Listening to Manny Ramirez from @deliveristas talk about organizing 65,000 gig delivery workers in NYC 🤯❤️✊#LaborNotes2022

Another family has lost their mother due to violence against app workers. We are being targeted and killed and our families are suffering. We need adequate safety measures to protect app workers and ensure we come home. This is heartbreaking. @lyft fox13memphis.com/news/local/…
