🗞️Our victory featured in @Documentedny “The apps don’t give up, but that hasn’t intimidated us—we keep fighting,” said @AjcheGustavo Apps hid tipping options, costing Deliveristas critical wages. But with the help of council members, we reversed it. documentedny.com/2025/07/16/cit…
They want to scare us into silence. They arrested @NYCComptroller to send a message — but we won’t be afraid. Thank you, Brad, for standing with our immigrant communities and defending the values this country is supposed to stand for — dignity, justice, and democracy. As a…
Hi, this is Meg Barnette, Brad's wife. While escorting a defendant out of immigration court at 26 Federal Plaza, Brad was taken by masked agents and detained by ICE. This is still developing, and our team is monitoring the situation closely.
Read more about my bill to require companies like Instacart, Grubhub, and DoorDash, and UberEats to give workers a reason for locking them out of the apps or deactivating their accounts. @SophLebo @LosDeliveristas @workersjusticep nyc.streetsblog.org/2025/07/18/new…
Read @CityLimitsNews on @LosDeliveristas victory: “In 2021, we won 6 laws for delivery workers. But platforms exploited loopholes, cutting tips & pay,” says @AjcheGustavo of @LosDeliveristas Now, we need deactivation and lockout protections next. citylimits.org/city-laws-look…
Today, we showed up at the press conference as @LosDeliveristas, using our diversity as our power to demand what we deserve: tip and pay transparency, and respect. It has taken nearly five years of organizing in the streets and at City Hall to get to this moment—and our fight is…


As a Deliverista, when I read that op-ed, I felt I had no choice but to speak up — especially when corporations try to silence us for simply demanding basic rights. Let me be clear: that op-ed is full of lies. It was written to defend @Instacart and attack workers like me.…

🚨@LosDeliveristas Calls Out @Instacart Fear Tactics Big corporations like Instacart use lies and scare tactics to avoid paying delivery workers a fair wage. But we see through the bluff — all delivery workers deserve a living wage and respect. ✊🏿✊🏽✊🏻 #Equitypaynow
For many, the 4th of July is a day of celebration and time spent with family. But while people gather to enjoy the holiday, thousands of delivery workers are out on the streets — facing extreme heat, the risk of assaults and robberies, all to provide for their own families.

We applaud the @NYCCouncil’s step forward with Int. No. 30-B to require app companies to provide safe, UL-certified e-bikes. But let’s be real: It’s not enough. App companies are already deactivating and locking out Deliveristas if we can’t meet impossible demands. They want us…

🚨 SAFE STREETS WIN: The first piece of legislation to regulate delivery app companies is set to pass! But we can't stop here: we need a full regulatory package to make sure these companies can't exploit loopholes — and their workers.
As a Deliverista and a New Yorker who has called this city home for over 20 years, I feel proud—because for the first time, we are part of the vision for the next Mayor of New York City. And I believe @ZohranKMamdani will win in November. Congratulations to @ZohranKMamdani for…

📢 Read statement from @AjcheGustavo, leader of @LosDeliveristas: “I’ve worked for Relay since 2017. After months of fighting, they must now pay $21.44/hr & reinstate wrongfully deactivated workers.” Thanks to bold leadership from @helloDCWP & Commissioner Vilda Vera Mayuga.✊🏾
Extreme heat is forecast over the next few days, and exposure to these conditions poses serious health risks. Yet, thousands of food and medical delivery workers—many of us on bicycles—will still be out on the streets, doing our jobs like every day. Please be kind. Be generous.…
Mayor Adams fumbles NYC bike storage program, councilmembers say gothamist.com/news/mayor-ada…
GrubHub & Doordash delivery workers face the same unfair treatment as Uber & Lyft drivers. Gig companies treat workers as disposable and fire us without cause or recourse. STOP unfair deactivations now!
Exclusive🚨 Bangladeshi GrubHub Workers Protest Unfair Deactivations The workers say that GrubHub locked them out of the app without due process "We are human beings with families.” New for @Documentedny documentedny.com/2025/06/18/ban…
