What happened

Some supportReported by 1 outlet

The National Urban League opposes the proposed Delivery Protection Act, known as Intro 518, presented to the New York City Council. The legislation would require licensing for certain warehouses and storage facilities and mandate that facility operators directly employ workers performing core delivery and warehouse services, while also restricting third-party contractors from providing those services. Marc Morial, CEO of the National Urban League, stated that the proposal could lead to thousands of job losses and increase economic disparities.

The opposition highlights concerns that the proposed regulations could disrupt the existing business models of delivery companies and threaten Black-owned businesses. An analysis released in September estimated that the legislation could put between 3,000 and 5,000 jobs at risk in a low-impact scenario, and over 10,000 in a high-impact scenario.
