, a union of rideshare workers that is lobbying for the legislation.

“We're bringing transparency to these platforms — and just to be clear, that's what they promised us from the beginning,” Vigil said. “The whole point here is for you to run your own work, work off the platform, make informed decisions about what jobs you want to take and which ones you don't want to take.
