Driver groups across the United States planned a 24-hour protest on Valentine's Day to demand fair pay, which they say they aren't getting from major rideshare companies.
Dozens of rideshare drivers joined a nationwide 24-hour strike on Valentine's Day, demanding better pay from major companies like Uber and Lyft. The protests, held as part of the 'National Driver Day of Action,' were planned in 44 cities across the United States and Canada on Wednesday by members of Rideshare Drivers United. Protestors say that major rideshare companies like Lyft and Uber 'have dramatically increased their take of the fare,' prompting their day-long strike.
'Poor wages have led to 'wildcat' driver actions across the country,' including Wednesday's strike which was also held in major metropolises like New York, Chicago, Philadelphia, Portland, San Francisco and Atlanta, the union said. They say that Valentine's Day has traditionally been a high earning day for drivers, which led to their decision to take action.
