SEIU 1021 members join app workers protesting misclassification outside Uber CEO’s San Francisco Mansion

On June 24, SEIU 1021 members joined over 100 app workers with We Drive Progress and Gig Workers Rising in a caravan of cars through San Francisco to the front doorstep of Uber CEO Dara Khosrowshahi’s mansion in Pacific Heights. Drivers were protesting their ongoing, illegal misclassification by app companies as independent contractors, a practice which Uber, Lyft, DoorDash and others use to deny workers basic rights and protections like paid sick leave, overtime, minimum wage, and other employee benefits.

WHAT WILL IT TAKE FOR THE CITY TO MAKE US AN OFFER?
Richmond Bargaining Update: June 24, 2020

Our contract expires on June 30, and our elected Bargaining Team has met with the City’s representatives twice, but they still have not made us an offer!

With less than a week before City Council must by law pass a balanced budget, we have yet to receive any written proposal from the City of Richmond’s negotiating team.

It’s not just us, either: the City has not even met with our labor allies in IFPTE Local 21!

When We Fight, We Win!
When We Stand with the Community, They Stand with Us

Dog in a car near signs reading NO MORE CUTS and SCHOOLS AND COMMUNITIES FIRST

Since the beginning of the COVID-19 pandemic, the City of Oakland administration has tried to attack our union. Before coming to the bargaining table, they cut the hours of our ‘temporary, part-time’ members and threatened mass layoffs of permanent workers. Only through a long campaign were we able to beat back the Mayor’s attack and force her to take her further concessions off the table.
