California maybe loosing $7 billion a year from the brazen criminal malfeasance and fraud. \n\nThe drivers, their families and the public are paying the costs of this criminality.\n\nWe demand that Dara and the other billionaires pay what they owe and that San Francisco District Attorney Chesin Boudin and California Attorney General Xavier Becerra immediately criminally prosecute Dara Khosrowshahi and other corporate executives for failure to provide workers compensation for the workers. \n\nFailure to have workers' compensation coverage is a criminal offense. Section 3700.5 of the California Labor Code makes it a \nmisdemeanor punishable by either a fine of not less than $10,000 or imprisonment in the county jail for up to one year, or both for failure to provide workers compensation.\n\nEnforce the LAW! No Pass For UBER CEO Dara Khosrowshahi\n\nStop Bullying UBER/Lyft Drivers and The Public\n\nStop Ripping Off Drivers-Pay What You Own\n\nSF DA Chesin Boudin and CA Attorney General Prosecute Dara and his cronies for failure to pay for Workers Compensation.\n\n\nEndorsed by United Public Workers For Action\nwww.upwa.info\nUnited Front Committee For A Labor Party\nhttps://foramasslaborparty.wordpress.com\nThe Alliance\nhttps://www.facebook.com/GigWorkersUnite/\n#DriversUnite/#EssentialWorkersUnite/Delivery\n\nJail UBER/LYFT CEO's: Workers & Unions In Rally In SF At UBER World HQ Against Anti-Labor Prop 22\n\nhttps://youtu.be/lKIS3V0QHcY\n\nHundreds of trades unionists and workers marched and rallied at the UBER world headquarters to oppose Proposition 22 which UBER, Lyft and other companies have put on the ballot to allow them to circumvent AB5 which requires benefits for their employees. Uber, Lyft, DoorDash, Instacart and Postmates are now spending over $200 million on Proposition 22 and speakers said that this money could have gone for their healthcare. \n\nThey also reported that UBER is selling PPE to them instead of supplying it to their workers.\n\nUBER and Lyft drivers also talked about their dangerous labor conditions including 70 and 80 hours of driving on the road and the harsh exploitation of workers by these app companies using technology.\n\nWorkers also talked about the failure to prosecute the owners of UBER, Lyft and other companies to pay workers compensation which was required as a result of AB5 becoming law on Jan 1, 2020. Under California law it is a crime not to provide workers compensation but they have yet to be prosecuted for violating the workers compensation laws which apply to these companies under AB5.\n\nIn addition to drivers, speakers and participants included Teamsters, SEIU nurses, TWU transit workers, SEIU janitors and SMART school bus drivers.\n\nTrade unionists said that the passage of this initiative would also threaten other workers who have social \nbenefits and lead to further privatization and contracting out of workers.\n\nAdditional media:\nWe Want A Union & AB5!
