                <media:description>Rideshare drivers demonstrate against rideshare companies Uber and Lyft during a car caravan protest on August 6, 2020 in Los Angeles. - The drivers, organized by the Mobile Workers Alliance and Rideshare Drivers United unions, say Uber and Lyft&apos;s are pushing a &quot;deceptive&quot; November ballot initiative, which, if passed, they claim would &quot;rewrite labor law&quot; and turn app-based drivers into independent contractors, exempting companies such as Lyft and Uber from standard wage and hour restrictions.
