We made a powerful statement last night before Council that we deserve better. Low pay, unfair deactivations, and the need for our Driver Resource Center using the agonizing stories of our driver community...Making lawmakers feel what we're going through!
This is what DRIVER POWER looks like.

Great article on the Bureau of Labor & Industries and their progress on catching up on wage complaints. We need our enforcers to be resourced enough to enforce!
BOLI is ending its $25.34 threshold for wage complaints. The agency earlier stopped investigating wage claims except for low-wage workers — because it was far behind trying to investigate all wage claims. nwlaborpress.org/2025/10/boli...

Good news to end the week: a bill establishing minimum pay and protections for rideshare drivers in Oregon made it out of a key committee in the legislature. Onward!
Uber and Lyft drivers in Oregon could soon be guaranteed minimum wage under bill advancing in Legislature
Lawmakers of both parties acknowledged the bill could lead to higher costs for riders.
