Rideshare companies Lyft and Uber are threatening to pull service out of Minneapolis if the city passes an ordinance this week that gives drivers more protections and higher pay. And in waves, the Department of Revenue will begin distributing one-time rebates this week to taxpayers who qualify based on 2021 income. The payments amount to $260 per person and up to $1,300 for a household. This is an MPR News morning update, hosted by Cathy Wurzer. Music by Gary Meister.
