Friday’s general strike in Italy was the biggest pro-Palestinian mobilization in any Western country yet. It expressed moral indignation but also resulted from years of movement building.

Another important reason that NYC Uber & Lyft drivers need just cause protections.
Uber drivers are getting in-app GPS directions from an app that appears to defy traffic laws — but drivers say they're encouraged to follow the GPS to a T to avoid customer complaints that would lead to getting "deactivated."

GrubHub & Doordash delivery workers face the same unfair treatment as Uber & Lyft drivers. Gig companies treat workers as disposable and fire us without cause or recourse. STOP unfair deactivations now!
