Uber Offers Immigrant Support For Partner Drivers From 7 ‘Banned’ Countries
In a move that clearly states it’s values, Uber Technologies Inc., the American-based global online transportation network company has offered a hand to its partner drivers from the 7 countries on President Trump’s temporary travel ban list.
Uber sent a message via its Driver app to all driver partners in the United States offering legal support for any of them needed it.
The message read: “We’re helping get free, confidential legal advice for partners from Iran, Iraq, Libya, Somalia, Sudan, Syria, or Yemen affected by the unjust and wrong immigration ban.
