A series of [[general strike]]s was coordinated on March 25, 2019 by [[Lyft]] and [[Uber]] drivers in Los Angeles, San Diego and San Francisco, [[California]], United States led by rideshare advocate group [[Rideshare Drivers United]]. The strikes aimed to protest low wages, long hours, working conditions, and lack of benefits. The event was planned following [[Lyft]]'s [[initial public offering]]. A second strike took place on May 8, 2019 in anticipation of [[Uber]]'s initial public offering. The strike in response to Uber's IPO took place in 25 major cities across the United States, and were also joined by drivers in other locations worldwide where Uber operates.
