Minnesota legislators passed a bill guaranteeing increased pay for Uber and Lyft drivers on Sunday that the companies found agreeable.
Minnesota legislators reached a compromise with Uber and Lyft to increase pay for drivers across the state through a newly passed bill on Sunday, according to the Star Tribune. The ridesharing companies say they will continue operating throughout the state, after threatening to leave Minneapolis in August when the city council passed even higher minimum pay standards that Uber called “incredibly expensive.
“It was Uber and Lyft versus MULDA and MULDA won,” Fateh said to supporters after the bill passed and then was hoisted into the air by the group. Starting Jan. 1, 2025, the bill ensures Minneapolis drivers will earn the city’s minimum wage of $15.75 after accounting for vehicle expenses and taxes, according to the Minnesota Reformer. The bill also provides increased insurance coverage for drivers injured on the job and protection against unfair account deactivation.
