[Colorado-Talk] FW: Rideshare in Colorado Is at Risk

Fri Apr 25 21:04:35 UTC 2025

This looked a little fishy to me as well. I thought I recognized it from Minneapolis last year. My brother-in-law lives up there, and according to him, Uber is alive and well in spite of all its threats to disappear.

I have gotten emails from Uber as well.  Last year Uber threatened to leave Minneapolis if they did not change several practices to meet the city’s new rules for rideshares operating in Minneapolis.  I know from my family in Minneapolis that Uber is still there.

My understanding of the law is that it will require video for all rides. This is the same as riding the pubic bus.  We should welcome this as it will provide more proof of the misdeeds of Uber drivers and their interactions with dog guides.

Greetings:

Uber is pulling out all the stops on this one. I find it disappointing that it has not done this for the discrimination that guide dog users continue to face from ride share providers in Colorado.

Honestly, I doubt that Uber will really pull out of our state if the bill is passed.

Cordially,

Curtis Chong

Act Now to Save Rideshare in Colorado

Hi Theresa,

Your Uber rides in Colorado are at risk. A new bill, HB25-1291, will force Uber to shut down statewide if passed in its current form.

If passed, this bill would:
•

Invade your privacy: The bill mandates continuous audio and video recording of all rides, with no way for you to opt out.
•

Create unworkable conditions: The bill imposes impractical requirements, like prohibiting drivers from offering riders a bottle of water—and holding Uber responsible if they do.
•

Increase your costs: The bill opens the door for more frivolous lawsuits that drive up prices at a time when the cost of living is a huge issue for Coloradans.

We believe there's a better way to ensure safety and accessibility without sacrificing your privacy or forcing Uber out of the state, and we’re ready to find a middle ground.

But time is running out: the legislative session ends May 7th, so your immediate action is crucial.

Click “Take Action” below to tell your lawmakers to keep Uber in Colorado.

Thanks,
The Uber team
