Uber and Lyft granted emergency stay, will not shut down in California tonight
Los Angeles Times
Labor groups including Mobile Workers Alliance and Gig Workers Rising opposed Uber’s and Lyft’s plans to halt California operations, and organized a protest Thursday morning before the shutdown was called off. Uber and Lyft drivers lined up their cars along Will Rogers Street by Los Angeles International Airport with posters deriding Proposition 22. José Noriega, a driver who attended the protest, was worried this morning about how he would make money if the services shut down in the state. “We have to do something about it,” he said. “We want more protections and benefits. Two weeks ago, I had to spend more than $1,000 to fix my car. They don’t care about that.”
