Uber is committed to ensuring our driver-partners and riders have access to the economic opportunities and improved transportation options they have come to depend on throughout the Commonwealth.

Earlier this month, the Senate passed a bill that embraced innovation and technologies that are changing the way Massachusetts moves.

In March, the House passed legislation that would create new obstacles, specifically related to our screening and certification processes, placing an unprecedented burden on the thousands of driver-partners who want to earn money on a flexible schedule, while banning ridesharing options at Logan Airport and the Boston Convention and Exhibition Center.

Technology has changed the way our cities move, companies operate, and people communicate. We are asking lawmakers to pass legislation that reflects the technological advances and solutions that can ensure safety of both riders and driver-partners.

Massachusetts is the hub of innovation. Ridesharing regulations should help improve and increase transportation options, rather than limit or ban ridesharing.
