DoorDash Inc. has issued a response criticizing Seattle’s delivery pay law, stating that the policy has harmed the very people it was meant to help. According to DoorDash, Dashers are earning less per hour overall, restaurants have seen a drop in orders, and consumers face the highest delivery fees in the country. DoorDash points to data showing a nearly 25% decline in Dasher earnings per total time spent on the app compared to 2023, and highlights that most local businesses are now under greater financial stress. The company urges city leaders to revisit the policy, expressing willingness to work toward a compromise that benefits Dashers, merchants, and customers.
