2 Bills have been introduced and now is the time to fight for our rights!

The legislative season has begun in Colorado and we have until May to fight for two amazing bills that have been introduced in regards to app-based driving. One bill focuses on rideshare, while the other focuses on delivery driving. Both bills also are focused on the need for transparency around all of our work! For example a passenger and driver both being able to see how much the company is charging and stealing from us. The bills also include provisions that protect us if we get kicked off the apps and left jobless by providing a framework for deactivation protections.

We are going to mobilize and rally at the capitol very soon for our bills! We need every driver to come down and send a message that we need these bills past and we won’t take no for an answer! Please sign-up for the rally here: https://cidu-cwa7777.solidarity.tech/rally-at-the-capitol. Be sure to copy and share the link to fellow drivers, we need a mass turnout if we are to win!

(Please see the attached fact sheet to learn more about our bills)
