Sacramento, CA…The Golden State just became home to the world’s largest union of gig drivers, thanks to historic legislation championed by Governor Gavin Newsom and the Legislature that provides a pathway to unionization for rideshare workers.
California’s landmark labor law, signed into law last year by Governor Gavin Newsom, has empowered California rideshare drivers to reach a major milestone. The California Gig Workers Union has reached the support threshold to represent gig drivers throughout the state, becoming the world’s largest union of rideshare drivers.
At a time when workers’ rights are under attack and families across the country are struggling with affordability because of the Trump administration, California is showing what it means to stand with working people.
Today is a new day for rideshare drivers who have spent a decade fighting for a stronger voice on the job.

The road to union representation
Recently, the California Public Employment Relations Board (PERB), the state agency overseeing gig drivers, verified that the California Gig Workers Union has reached the support threshold to represent gig drivers throughout the state. Following a 30-day waiting period the California Gig Workers Union can be certified as the collective bargaining representative for Lyft and Uber drivers.
In 2025, Governor Newsom signed AB 1340 (Wicks, Berman), which empowered hundreds of thousands of rideshare drivers in California to have the legally protected choice to unionize and engage in collective bargaining over wages, benefits, and working conditions. In an era when Trump is abandoning people, California is standing with unions to protect workers.

Mr. Scrumptious, There’s Your Ass Clown!
That’s just great new scum, now it’s gonna cost $1000 for a fucking cab ride. You’re a piece of shit fucking governor.
That’s great!! Thank you
These people work when they want and for however long they want. They are independently working, they are not at anyone’s mercy but their own. You can’t blame trump for everything, you have no other backing than to say “trump bad” and try to do the opposite just to be able to pat yourself on the back:
I pat Mr. Ridiculed on the ass.
Has anyone seen Mitch MCCONNELL. Has anyone seen the Epstein Files? That’s Republican Transparency
Ask Clinton for the Files!

I agree you’re right about Biden.
Let’s pretend giving trumps family tax immunity for over 300 hundred businesses. And his criminal family. Is good for American Credibility …
Oh Really!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
All of the above sheep that follow Trump have one thing in common. Wait……..actually more than one, but lets just highlight two.
A) They are blind to the obvious
B) They are stupid
Also, why do they keep referring to Biden, and unbelievably Clinton, who hasn’t been in office for around twenty years, maybe more………..Because Trump has ruined our economy, and has his sights on ruining the worlds, the uneducated moronic like Trumpers keep blaming Biden and Clinton!!! Hello………………………Biden’s been gone for going on two years now, even Trump says its “his” economy. And he says it going GREAT!!!! Its going great for billionaires, but for the rest of us not so much.
What is wrong with you Trumpers??? You can’t be billionaires, you must be blind to the truth. Oh wait…………you are that AND stupid.
The man Trump fears the most??
Senator John Ossoff. He has Trumps number, can eloquently rebuff the Orange Turd, has youth, vigor, all the prerequisites for POTUS. Lets hope he decides to run. Gavvy is Groovy, but too much baggage.
John Ossoff, 2028!!!!!!!!!
Has Jonah been fucking you in the ass?
No. Just your son.
Good Boy!!!!!!!!!!!!
US National Debt has increased by ~$600 billion since July 1st
Thanks Democrats!
^^Ummm. Trump has been POTUS since July 1st. No need to thank Dems you fucking moron. It’s Trumps gig. But you don’t notice that do you brain dead heaver? Trump tells you “Its Joes fault.”, and you believe him. Just like a brainless sheep would follow his leader into a quagmire of quicksand, you follow Trump into the economic abyss we are now sinking down into.
Billionaires are kicking ass, rest of us are wallowing. Including the Stoopid Fucking Trump Voters of Calaveras. The WORST example of ignorant sheep in the country. Hands down……………………….
Trump jr made 3.2 billion … from ripping off Americans
Trump has run the Nation’s debt to over 40 trillion. He has always been known as the credit card president. He likes charging. Does not like to pay … just saying
Thanks Biden for running up the DEBT.
