Lyft driver Naomi Birabwa of Framingham: 'Not only am I my own boss, but I also get to help my community at the same time.'
"It’s not really a job, it’s a way of life for me."
Lyft driver Raya Denny of Springfield: Flexible work allows me to help her community
"The flexibility of driving is not just a perk for me, it’s a necessity."
"Without this flexibility, I wouldn't be able to be there for my family as much as I am."
'Backers of the question say it will continue to give the workers the freedom to work when, where, how often and how long they want.'
A ballot measure would expand new benefits for app-based drivers in Massachusetts — while allowing them to maintain their independence.
"Without this flexibility, I wouldn't be able to be there for my family as much as I am."
“This measure will help every driver, by preserving our ability to work whenever and however we want, and also give us access to brand new benefits that will really help.”
The ballot measure is supported by a fast-growing coalition of drivers and allies in the Massachusetts Coalition for Independent Work.
