The showdown in Minneapolis over a May 1 level of minimum pay for what the city calls Transportation Network Companies — specifically, Uber and Lyft — has been put off for at least two months.
With both companies having said they would pull out of the city when the minimum compensation ordinance went into effect at the start of next month — and news reports saying Uber (NYSE: UBER) also would withdraw from the larger Twin Cities area, including the airport, which is not located in either...
The clock is ticking on a threat by Uber and Lyft to pull out of Minneapolis on May 1 after the City Council this week overrode a mayoral veto of an ordinance laying out minimum compensation requirements for app-based drivers.
The current measure has few substantive differences from a plan that died last year after it was vetoed by Mayor Jacob Frey.
Last year’s veto override vote was 5-5 with three abstentions. This time, the vote was a veto-proof 10-3 in favor. There have been changes in the...

Customers can track their pickup delivery in real time in the Uber app and will be notified when the...

The “other” AB5 case in California — overshadowed by the better-known case brought by the California Trucking Association (CTA) — is awaiting word from the full 9th U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals on what happens next.
California partially lost the case against AB5 brought by Uber and Postmates in March before a three-judge panel of the 9th Circuit. The state of California is the defendant.
That decision, known as Olson after the lead plaintiff in the case first filed in 2019, said app-based...
The mayor of Minneapolis has vetoed an ordinance approved last week by Minneapolis City Council to establish a minimum per-mile pay rate for Uber and Lyft drivers in the city.
Instead, Mayor Jacob Frey announced an agreement with Uber (NYSE: UBER) that will guarantee a pay rate to its drivers that will equate to the Minneapolis minimum wage, which, depending on company size, is either side of $15 an hour. The agreement on a minimum wage appears to only apply to Uber, as Lyft has not indicated it...
