ALT Statement on DOJ Lawsuit Vs Uber I commend the Department of Justice for recognizing that these are not isolated incidents, but evidence of a widespread civil rights failure. When companies like Uber consistently fail to comply with the law, it is disabled riders who are left behind. This lawsuit underscores a longstanding pattern that people with disabilities have called out for years, often at great personal and emotional cost, only to be met with automated responses and institutional inaction. β¨As an individual who relies on a professionally trained service dog from Canine Companions, I understand what meaningful access should entail. No one should be forced to choose between their mobility and their legal rights. This case represents a critical opportunity to move beyond performative awareness and toward lasting accountability.
