We are inspired everyday by the countless, courageous women who have pushed the labor movement forward, past and present! We celebrate the women who have fought for change and remember their sacrifices as we fight for a union and higher pay for app drivers across the country!
New York IDG member Dinara Zhanpeissova was one of the many key drivers who helped secure an 8.8% wage increase for New York drivers this month!
She shocked the TLC by explaining that after taxes, fees, expenses, and Uber’s cut, she would only be making $18,000 for the year.
This past month members of our Massachusetts chapter caravanned to their local Uber headquarters to let the tech giant know that they will not stop demanding a union❗
When we fight, we win! Congratulations to our @DrivingGuild chapter for securing ANOTHER wage increase for New York Uber and Lyft drivers yesterday ✊🏽✊🏻
“The biggest thing we are fighting for is a seat at the table. We drivers need a seat at the table so we can negotiate our salary, our benefits, and our safety,” - Sohail Rana, CT IDG Deputy Director ✊🏾✊🏾

Happy Black History Month! This month and every, we recognize the indispensable contributions and achievements of Black American workers whose courage, vision, and solidarity has moved our society forward in innumerable ways.
Put a stop to the dangerous congestion tax that New York state officials are proposing by signing our petition: actionnetwork.org/petitions/…!
According to the Black Institute's newest report, it will effectively double-tax for hire vehicle drivers, the majority of which are immigrants and people of color: bit.ly/CongestionReport1

New York state officials are proposing a SECOND congestion tax on rideshare drivers servicing the busiest parts of Manhattan. This tax will lower your pay, make rides more expensive for riders, and potentially kill thousands of rideshare jobs!
According to the Black Institute’s recent report, the congestion tax will also disproportionately affect the health and financial well-being of black and brown communities in New York! Read here: bit.ly/CongestionReport1
We have the power to stop this dangerous tax! Sign our petition today: actionnetwork.org/petitions/…
