a 2018 study of tnc drivers in los angelos found 1-5 drivers rely on some form of public assistance. this is an issue that deserves san francisco's attention, specifically while the state legislation is contemplating change in our local gig economy. i look forward to discussing each of these issues at this hearing and would like to thank labor partners to bringing this forward including sciu 1021, the ww teamsters, jobs for justice, the gig worker's rights if rising and i want to think my cosponsor supervisor marr, working on employment justice issues long before he joined this board and i believe we'll have a few things to say in a moment about this and i want to thank cosponsors, supervisor peskin, fuer, walton and brown and the rest i submit. >> thank you. soup storsupervisor marr. >> thank you for introducing the hearing on gig worker rights. i'm proud to cosponsor it and did want to offer brief remarks. fundamentally, the issue is about inequality, about unequal protections for workers in emerging industries and unequal pay and treatment for a growing and increasingly vulnerable
