    Uber and lift drivers make more than minimum wage, and make basically the same income as taxi drivers, so I’m not sure what you’re even saying here.

    They cost less than taxis because they have less overhead.

      If that was the case then this bill would be of no concern to them. In reality, only some drivers make more than minimum wage, not all

        It’s an additional charge just for those companies, not an actual minimum wage.

          The Minneapolis City Council is trying to create a new minimum wage for drivers. Uber and Lyft drivers are not “already making” this. What are you reading?
