When gas prices go up, our earnings go down. Temporary “relief” from the app companies isn’t enough. We need fair wages and real protections. https://t.co/QSQZc8Pj1b

The effects of the war in Iran are far-reaching, extending to drivers for DoorDash and Uber Eats. They're paying more for gas — and being squeezed by competition. DoorDash is rolling out some relief.

A rideshare driver in Wisconsin was assaulted and carjacked on the job, and is now facing over $12,000 in medical bills and $2,500 in car repairs. Uber won’t help cover these costs. This has to change. https://t.co/LSXeRs3ObD

115 years ago, bosses locked the doors. 146 workers, mostly immigrant women, never made it out. That fire changed everything and it's why we fight like hell for #SafeJobs today! #NeverForget #LaborHistory #WorkersRights

Healthcare for all! Health care is a human right, not simply a privilege for the wealthy. Everyone should have the care they need to survive and thrive.

As app workers, we do the work that keeps our cities moving. It’s time we had the rights and protections to match.

On top of threatening jobs and safety, robotaxis could make our cities harder to live in. New research shows AVs will cause more traffic, more congestion, and more empty cars on the road. We deserve better transportation solutions. https://t.co/xsLCCsngjJ

Every single weekend, we show up to keep our cities moving. That’s why we deserve fair pay, real protections, and respect on the job.

Waymo hasn’t even officially launched in Nashville, but their robotaxis are already causing problems. From blocking construction sites to disrupting school dropoffs, this technology keeps proving it’s not ready. https://t.co/WiLqY6IkmZ

Costs for rent, groceries, health care, utilities and more keep going up. Workers are struggling to pay bills while billionaires and corporations get even richer. Join the movement and form a union as we organize and build power for working people. https://t.co/LKESM2mjQe

Big step forward for delivery workers: NYC is ending criminal summonses for cyclists, so we won’t be dragged to court just for doing our jobs. We’ll keep fighting for fairness and holding app companies accountable for the conditions they create. https://t.co/ioiJ9qPBz2

This week, a Waymo robotaxi tried to enter a highway lane going the wrong way in Houston during rush hour. Our roads aren’t a tech experiment, and we deserve better. https://t.co/jHt2dR7Tm4

They stood on business and stood up for the dignity and respect they deserve—and won. Congrats to @TheWNBPA players on reaching a historic agreement on a new contract. Women’s basketball is #BetterInAUnion!
