"Flexibility helped pull me out of the pandemic and support my kids."

"I spent a lifetime working traditional shift jobs — which is why I am committed to protecting the flexibility I now have as a driver."

"Drivers need freedom to drive when we want to and when we need to. That freedom is priceless."

"'My car is a valuable asset, and I need to put it to work for me and my family.'"

"Without the flexibility offered by the app-based companies, I wouldn’t be able to drive when and where I want and earn income to send back to my family."

"Workers like me rely on the flexibility of these apps, but we deserve more protections, and there has never been a better moment to do both: protect flexibility and expand benefits."

"I don’t have to call a manager and overshare personal details to explain why I can't come into work, I can just do whatever I need to do in order to care for my son and pay our bills."

"As a busy single mom, I rely on a few different sources of income, and being able to earn extra money by shopping any time I’ve needed or wanted to has been essential for me."

"Being independent and choosing my hours is what allows me to do this work and earn money while getting an education."

"Driving with Lyft allows me to spend quality time with my daughter and gave me the time to help conduct her at-home schooling with her when schools were closed due to the pandemic."
