Today is Bike Messenger Appreciation Day! From LDU, we honor and thank every NYC bike messenger who rides through all conditions to keep our city moving, reduce emissions, and ease traffic. Special shoutout to NYC BMA and all messengers out there. Solidarity always!

Unsafe streets are an infrastructure failure—not an enforcement failure. On 3rd Ave in The Bronx, no bike lane means Deliveristas must ride alongside cars. NYC Council must address this as a worker safety issue and engage delivery workers in building the solutions.

"This bill will only intensify e-bike confiscation, racial profiling, massive deactivations, without addressing the infrastructure, the regulation, the lack of worker protections that workers need." — @ligiaguallpa.bsky.social, on the bill that would allow NYPD and DOT to seize non-compliant bikes

Today at @NYCCouncil, 150+ Deliveristas waited all day to be heard on 20+ micromobility bills that FAIL to address our urgent needs or the root causes of unsafe streets. @NYCCouncil: We share the goal of safer streets, but today’s package FAILS to center workers’ needs. ✊🏽✊🏾✊🏿

What NYC's delivery workers / los deliveristas need:

1️⃣ Protected bike lanes
2️⃣ Loading zones
3️⃣ Tools to fight back against deactivations and an algorithm abusing + endangering workers

Today, we joined @hellodcwp.bsky.social to reach deliveristas, share their rights, and distribute bathroom access cards. Workers’ rights are only powerful when workers know them. ✊🏽 Proud to stand with NYC DCWP in this fight!
