New national report exposes that the group Seattle City Council President Sara Nelson has elevated as “voice of workers” in effort to gut gig worker minimum wage is nothing but a front group run by Uber & DoorDash lobbyists.

Drivers Union President Peter Kuel and rep Kat Jensen, proud to stand with Governor Jay Inslee as we mainstream climate justice into WA's EV transition. Affordable zero emissions vehicles and accessible charging infrastructure enable all Washingtonians to take part in the solution!

Nationwide, Uber, Lyft, and delivery companies are buying, bullying, bamboozling our elected leaders into sitting by while they exploit workers. This PowerSwitch Action and National Employment Law Project report uncovers their devious corporate playbook. linkprotect.cudasvc.com/url?a=https%3a…

This guy gets it. "When you factor in their actual costs ... food delivery is not making drivers wealthy. And I’d argue they’re not getting more than they deserve. No one is getting rich here … Except for UberEats and DoorDash." KIRO Nights Working Washington mynorthwest.com/3958968/butler…

Drivers Union stands in solidarity with Minnesota drivers in the fight for fair pay.

Thanks, Drivers Union & Working Washington for standing up for workers!

Drivers Union President Peter Kuel and a cavalcade of delivery drivers speak out against efforts to cave to corporate blackmail and slash driver pay at the Seattle City Council today. We stand with delivery drivers and Working Washington as they fight to save fair pay.

Champion for fairness!

⚠️ This is your regularly programmed reminder that, in a matter of days, under Council President Sara Nelson's leadership, Seattle is poised to become the first city in the country to dramatically cut down gig workers' pay & to gut our 4-month-old right to minimum wage. ⚠️

Seattle is the home of the Fight For $15. We *raise* wages here, because we know that when workers do well, we all do well. So why's a drastic pay cut for gig workers on the Seattle City Council's agenda today?

Drivers around the world are fed up with working conditions that would shock the public if they were more widely known. Drivers can lose their job for anything or nothing at all, often without an explanation why. Chicago drivers deserve the same protections that WA drivers won!

Great analysis by Sergio A. and Chris Harry Campbell 🇺🇸 on @TheRideshareGuy SMTMC podcast on why UBER/LYFT pay floor should be PER-TRIP, like Drivers Union won in Seattle & WA. w/o per-trip guarantee, Uber & Lyft can exploit a huge “FAKE BONUS LOOPHOLE”

How does the FAKE BONUS LOOPHOLE work? Uber/Lyft pay drivers less than per-mile/per-min pay standard. Then they offer driver a “bonus” to entice work when driver otherwise wouldn’t. In reality, the fake “bonus” is already owed to the driver for previous underpayment.

Drive Forward - funded & run by Uber, with a board exclusively made up of Uber execs - today ran a The Seattle Times op-ed using their corporate employer's talking points, calling on city council to gut the gig worker minimum pay law. Why? Because Drive Forward is Uber.

It's simple. When an Uber funded group claims to speak for drivers and tells us that what drivers really want is lower pay, they're lying. Here's a slice of the truth: seattletimes.com/opinion/im-a-d…

Today, Drivers Union & Washington State ESD are launching the nation’s first Paid Family & Medical Leave benefits for Uber & Lyft drivers! 🎉 driversunionwa.org/pfml

All around the world, we see the same playbook; as drivers assert their rights, Uber obfuscates and attempts to undercut the basic protections all workers deserve. theguardian.com/technology/art…
