Unshackle Upstate Supports Bill to Speed Up Ride-Hailing

May 8th, 2017

“As summer tourism season draws near, hundreds of thousands of visitors will flock to enjoy our Upstate communities, lakes, parks and festivals. It’s important for business that residents and visitors have access to modern and reliable transportation options. This will help boost Upstate tourism – a key component of the regional economy.

We thank Senator Ranzenhofer and Assemblyman Cahill for advancing a proposal to expedite the operation of transportation network providers and call on the Legislature to pass it as soon as possible. Upstate has waited long enough for ride-hailing.”
