THE ILLINOIS HOUSE PASSED A BILL THIS WEEK THAT AIMS TO KEEP RIDSHARE CUSTOMERS SAFE. 

THE LEGISLATION PLACES COMPANIES LIKE UBER AND LYFT UNDER WHAT'S CALLED "COMMON CARRIER" LAWS. THAT MEANS THEY WOULD BE HELD TO HIGHER SAFETY STANDARDS, JUST LIKE TAXI'S ARE SAYS REPRESENTATIVE JENNIFER GONG-GERSHOWITZ OF GLENVIEW.

BUT OTHERS, LIKE REPRESENTATIVE PATRICK WINDHORST OF METROPOLIS, HAVE CONCERNS.

THE BILL STILL NEEDS TO BE PASSED BY THE SENATE.
