Read Mary Wright's story, a Chicago-based driver, on why forming a drivers union has been long overdue, we deserve dignity and support. Thank you @GovPritzker, we are ready to sign our union cards once the Rideshare Drivers' Union bill is signed into law!

Hear from Andrew Spiro, a Springfield-area driver, about why the passage of our union bill was so important. There's still a lot of work to do to improve our industry, but this victory gives us a real pathway forward. Thank you, @GovPritzker, for your support.

UPDATE! With the passage of our historic bill, we’re proud to announce our new name: App Drivers Union! We’re joining our rideshare siblings in Massachusetts with a new logo and the same commitment to fighting for rideshare drivers. Spread the word! We’re stronger together.

Waymo has had to recall 3,900 vehicles due to AT LEAST 13 of their cars driving into highway construction zones. We can't trust driverless cars to keep us safe on the road! Illinois must SAY NO to WAYMO. Read here: abc7news.com/19325191/

Driver Michael Baumhart lost his Lyft rental car, income, and housing after his vehicle was unjustly repossessed while lobbying for union recognition in Springfield. No driver should face this alone, we need a union NOW. Read Michael's story here: illinoisdriversalliance.org/blog/a-car-was…

After passing our HISTORIC legislation this past May, we came together today for a rideshare driver brigade meeting to discuss the next steps toward union recognition. By organizing together, we’re showing what worker power looks like, and we’ll keep fighting until we win!

At 2:30 a.m., the Rideshare Drivers’ Union Bill passed the IL General Assembly giving 100,000+ rideshare drivers the right to form a union. I’m so proud of these drivers for refusing to give up and who kept on pushing forward for a better future. This is worker power!
