Deliveristas rally at City Hall for protections ahead of vote to block delivery apps from firing without cause

As the City Council votes to determine if delivery apps can block workers and fire them, a group rallied outside City Hall to demand fair pay and protections from the apps themselves.

The rally, held on Sept. 12, had New York City’s local restaurant owners and deliveristas, as well as representation from the City Council. The crowd chanted about how many groups would be impacted without fair protections.
