But Bernie needs a Lyft: Campaign expensed $1000 in rides while Sanders protested driver wages

Bernie Sanders stood in solidarity with Lyft drivers calling for a strike back in March, but his presidential campaign spent nearly $1000 in that month alone on the ride-sharing service.

“I stand with Uber and Lyft drivers striking in LA. One job should be enough to make a decent living in America, especially for those working for multibillion-dollar companies,” the Vermont senator tweeted on March 25. “Drivers must be paid the wages they deserve.”
