Uber CEO Warns Service Could Halt In California Until November

Uber is facing a legal challenge in California to reclassify its drivers as employees, which could disrupt its operations. The lawsuit, initiated by California Attorney General Javier Becerra, claims Uber and Lyft are avoiding state law by classifying drivers as contractors. Uber supports Proposition 22, a measure on the November ballot, which would exempt gig companies from this law, allowing drivers to maintain flexibility. The outcome of this legal battle could significantly impact the gig economy.
