Valentine’s Day Strike: Drivers Fight for Fair Pay

Uber, Lyft, and DoorDash drivers are planning a nationwide strike on Valentine's Day to demand fair pay. This comes after Lyft announced it will guarantee drivers' weekly earnings. The drivers argue that the platforms take excessive commissions. Uber claims that only a minority of drivers participate in strikes and that drivers are adequately compensated. Gridwise data shows Uber drivers' earnings dropped while Lyft drivers' increased, highlighting the need for better compensation. The strike could have significant implications for the gig economy.
