[Colorado-Talk] Rideshare and regislation and regulation

[Amy Sabo]

hello dan,

no, i didn't watch this live last night on channel 7. but, thank you for posting the link of this video to the list. i was able to click on the link to play the video. it took a couple of seconds but, it did load for me on my laptop. i wasn't aware of this legislation that the govenor voteoed last year for the safety of ride share services like uber and lift.

but, i do hope that thislegislation gets passed into the state law for all safety of people with disabilities especially the blind of colorado. but, this would also not just be for the disabled community it would also benefit the society especially women who travel independtally or men too!


thanks again for this information and, i will talk to you soon.





hugs,
amy sabo

Good morning -Maybe you saw Dishon Spears on Channel 7last night. He was part of a story  on the Public Utilities Commission considering new regulations and the legislature considering new bills.Here is the news video with Shon:Rideshare regulations back on the table in Colorado as agencies ask for community feedbackHere's the link where the PUC is asking for public input:https://engagedora.org/rideshare-feedbackAlsoHB26-1043 is a bill from Rep. Gretchen Rydin that would specifically address rideshare denials because of a service dog. This wasn't actually mentioned in the news story above.
