Who funded the study?
25 Jan 2023
In January of 2020 in Massachusetts, services provided by app-based drivers represented 85,133 earning opportunities.
- A study done by Beacon Economics projects that reclassifying drivers could mean a loss of at least 49,270 earning opportunities.

Platforms don’t drive passengers or drop of deliveries… workers do. And they don’t trust Uber and co., not for a second.
23 Jan 2023
Massachusetts residents have come to rely on app-based rideshare and delivery platforms, based on data from 2021. Here are some of the numbers:
- 39.5 million rides were completed using app-based rideshare in 2021.

NOTHING “FOR” THE DRIVERS WITHOUT THE DRIVERS!
In our meeting tonight our membership decided to take a clear stance on new proposed legislation. A “union” funded by the companies - in which members do not elect their leaders - is not a union, it is a puppet show and a dues scam.

We pooled our data - 12,000 rides given by drivers in CA under Prop 22 rules. The data shows : Prop 22 merely legalizes LyftUber's ability to pay drivers next to nothing - while having us finance their entire fleet. @_drivers_united /1 nationalequityatlas.org/prop…

We were out today at the airport lot with a team that collectively can speak English, Arabic, Portuguese, Bengali, and Chinese - to deliver a message that crosses all language barriers: “Drivers deserve respect from Uber and Lyft.” #1u #unionpower #UnionYes #PassHB1094

All workers in this country are entitled to a decent standard of living. That is not a radical idea.

I am proud to have earned the endorsement of @driversunitedMA. We must ensure that our app-based workers are getting the protections they deserve for fair wages and working conditions. I will be a champion for workers’ rights as the next LT. Governor.
ALT Massachusetts Drivers United Endorses Dr. Tami Gouveia for LT. Governor!

Good morning to everyone who thinks the fundamental right to organize and form a union should belong to every single worker!

I have stood with Uber/Lyft drivers and other gig workers for years. I am ready to fight for all those struggling to make ends meet. They deserve dignity, benefits, and protections!

@NMossalam has shown her tremendous support for app-workers, helping to defeat BigGig's ballot initiative. Nichole understands the issues of racism and xenophobia which many gig-workers face, on and off the job. If you want justice for immigrants and workers, vote Nichole!

Everyday, app workers face low pay, misclassification, and harassment racism on the job - all without union rights.
We are backing these four amazing women because app-workers need champions - and we trust them to take the fight to @Uber @lyft @DoorDash @Grubhub! #FightLikeHell
