Empower Texas Is Not a Fan of Houston Rideshare Regulations

Add Empower Texas to the lsit of entities opposed to Houston’s foray into regulation of ridesharing. Empower Texas points to these problems with the regulations:

• Permitting and licensing process will cost Houstonians about $530,000 annually
• 8 temporary City employees for application processing, costing roughly $45,000
• Added regulations are burdensome to the drivers
