Kimmy Yam at NBC News reports the popular Delivery Apps Uber, DoorDash and GrubHub have lost their bid to block New York City’s Minimum Wage Mandate for App-Based Delivery Workers.  An Acting New York State Supreme Court Justice ruled against the companies after they sued the City in July, when the rule was to go into effect.  The decision will now make way for the minimum pay rate, which is scheduled to eventually reach $19.96 per hour, to be implemented for some 65,000 of the City’s Delivery Workers.  “Multi-billion-dollar companies cannot profit off the backs of Immigrant Workers while paying them pennies in New York City and get away with it,” said Ligia Guallpa, the Director of the New York-based Workers Justice Project, which helped lead the advocacy efforts for a minimum wage.
