We believe that drivers should be the city’s primary engagement partner on every aspect of the rideshare reforms and programs. Ridesharing is a source of income for many immigrants, minorities, and others with limited skills. SRDA provides education on driver’s rights and legal advice to make sure that drivers are compensated and treated fairly.
Why is SRDA essential to drivers?
We believe that drivers should be the city’s primary engagement partner on every aspect of the rideshare reforms and programs.

SRDA provides education on driver’s rights and legal advice to make sure that drivers are compensated and treated fairly.
What happened in the past
Although there were some interventions in the past such as the Fare Share Plan(2019), it has not had much of an impact on improving the life of drivers. Even though driving apps have become more popular, the compensation share and benefits for drivers have not increased along with it.
What are we still fighting for?
SRDA advocates for rideshare policy reforms that increase the health, safety, and welfare of drivers. In the last city council budget hearing, SRDA voiced support for revenue reforms to increase the tax on rideshare trips, which will be channeled to a new Driver Solidarity and Resource Center.
Unemployment Backpay
If rideshare drivers file for unemployment and do not receive their unemployment benefits from the government, SRDA provides assistance.
