On April 3, a Seattle City Council committee held a meeting to discuss a resolution that would increase rates for Uber trips in order “to protect the market share of taxi drivers” according to City Council staff member Tony Kilduff. Dozens of TNC drivers and riders attended the meeting to speak out against the resolution and highlight how it could increase drunk driving, congestion, and expenses for Seattleites already struggling with a high cost of living. The committee members voted to advance the idea anyway. Now they need to hear from you. We need your help!
