BREAKING: A judge struck down a California ballot measure that exempted Uber, other companies from a state law requiring their drivers to be classified as employees eligible for benefits, job protections. The ruling calls Proposition 22 unconstitutional.
Voters approved the measure in November after Uber, Lyft and other services spent $200 million in its favor, making it the most expensive ballot measure in state history.
“This ruling ignores the will of the overwhelming majority of California voters and defies both logic and the law,” company spokesman Noah Edwardsen said. “You don’t have to take our word for it: California’s attorney general strongly defended Proposition 22’s constitutionality in this very case.
