US Ride-Share Drivers Ready for Countrywide Strike Ahead of Uber IPO

Reports of a planned strike on Wednesday, May 8, have surfaced as drivers employed by companies like Uber and even Lyft are protesting the business practices and pay discrepancies between their line of work and executives. After the strike, drivers are reportedly planning to rally and protest in front of the Uber and Lyft headquarters in New York at 1 p.m. on the same day. But taxi drivers aren’t the only ones facing significant pay cuts as ride-share drivers are protesting being underpaid while Uber and Lyft executives walk away with millions.
