I am sick of reading posts from politicians on both sides blaming each other or Trump for the shut down of the government.
Stop trying to one up each other and get to work at finding a solution!

While Gig work has low bar of entry, it comes at great cost to workers rights. Report after report finds exploitation of gig workers is a real problem that affects workers daily lives. There is no stability w/ Gig work. This report by @hrw further shows we must reform Gig work.
1/ After nearly 3 years of research, our @hrw report The Gig Trap is finally out. It documents how companies like @Uber @lyft @DoorDash @Instacart @Shipt @Amazon Flex built a business model that undermines labor rights & deepens inequality in the US. A 🧵hrw.org/node/391214
I'm not watching one more Mavs game until @NicoHarrisonGM is fired and Mavz have new owners. I'm done! #firenico #dallasmavssellteam #dallasmavs🏀
I'm done with the @dallasmavs. I know it doesn't matter to new ownership when one fan walks away but I'm disgusted by what they just did to Luka. #boycottmavz #boycottmavs

I am proud of the work we did to expose @shipt lie that we were better off under a new payscale introduced in 2020. Sadly things have continued to get worse for workers in the gig economy but our work gave workers a voice @shipt would of preferred was silenced.

The major issues w/ gig work is all risk is absorbed by worker. My cars transmission went out & I am now stuck w/ $5200 repair bill. Gig companies benefited while I drove my car into ground. I know I'll figure this out but its upsetting what I earned is not enough to cover cost.

Most gig workers find it hard to make ends meet, and lack access to employer-based health insurance, retirement plans or workers' compensation. "The precarious nature of not being protected is front and center every single day," said @WillySolis357.
