⚡️One month into NYC’s new e-bike speed limit, delivery apps are pressuring workers to rush — or face unjust deactivation for following the law.

🚨@NYCCouncil must pass Intro 1332 NOW to hold apps accountable and protect workers.

The First Week of the E-Bike Speed Limit Was Confusing
Cops warned delivery workers to slow down, but the apps haven’t changed a thing: “People still want their food fast.”

While doing site visits in #Astoria, I bumped into some good old buddies doing great outreach to #DeliveryWorkers of their rights but also of their responsibilities and the laws they have to adhere to.

It’s always a great time talk to #DeliveristasUnidos and @workersjusticep.bsky.social!

How delivery workers in New York City banded together during the COVID pandemic
When the COVID pandemic erupted five years ago, the streets of New York City were desolate. Delivery workers feared they'd be robbed or attacked, and so they banded together for the first time.

In New York, workers must receive what's rightfully theirs by law and for a job well done.

Kudos to everyone who made this settlement with DoorDash possible, including: @newyorkstateag.bsky.social, @workersjusticep.bsky.social, and the "Dashers" who stood up for fair and transparent pay policies.

Yesterday, @workersjusticep.bsky.social was proud to stand with @newyorkstateag.bsky.social in announcing the recovery of nearly $17 million in tips STOLEN by DoorDash from thousands of hard-working deliveristas. This is a landmark victory in our struggle for the dignity and rights of deliveristas!
For years, DoorDash cheated its delivery workers by using customers' tips to meet its workers’ guaranteed pay instead of giving them the tips they earned. 
 
Today, we're making DoorDash pay $16.75 million that will go back into the pockets of tens of thousands of workers.
