Students among those pushing to #SaveUberMiami

Uber is a popular ridesharing app that makes private transportation accessible. The loss of this traveling option would affect numerous people that live in Miami-Dade.

“Without Uber it would make going to downtown a lot more difficult and more complicated,” said senior Eden Moskona.

On Wednesday, January 20, the Miami-Dade County Commissions will meet to vote to decide the future of ride-sharing in Miami-Dade. Commissioner Brovo’s proposal welcomes Uber to Miami-Dade and would create a permanent regulatory home for ride-sharing.

The other proposal, sponsored by Chairman Monestime, contradicts Brovo’s proposal because he is more hostile about ride-sharing. If his proposal is passed, it would make it impossible for Uber to continue operating.

If you want to advocate your preference on the matter you can contact County Commissioner Barbara Jordan at [email protected].
