Today, the Comptroller of NYC, Scott Stringer, wrote in a post on Medium that the City Council should postpone its vote on a bill that would temporarily cap the number of new driver licenses available to companies like Uber and Lyft. He stated "An arbitrary cap on for-hire vehicles is not the answer - we need to think strategically about our transport networks." But the Comptroller didn’t let Uber completely off the hook, writing that both Uber and the city need to come to the negotiating table. “We must take a close look at wage standards in the shared economy,” Stringer wrote.
