New York City Mayor Bill de Blasio rejected Uber’s calls to have
a live debate about their differences on Monday, saying he doesn’t
debate private corporations.
The invitation from the San
Francisco on-demand transportation company came after the New York
City Council introduced a bill that would temporarily limit the
number of new for-hire vehicle licenses the Taxi and Limousine
Commission can issue while the city completes a study on the effect
of taxicabs and for-hire vehicles.
If passed, the bill would
effectively cap Uber’s and its competitors’ growth, limiting the
number of new vehicles the ride-hailing companies can add to New
York City’s roads.
In addition to inviting De
Blasio to a live debate, Uber has accused the mayor of stifling
innovation, alleging that the bill is less about traffic congestion
and more about appeasing the local taxicab industry, which has made
contributions to De Blasio’s campaign. 。。。。。。。。。。。。。。。
