DoorDash to Pay $131.5 Million in New York City Delivery Worker Settlement

DoorDash (DASH) agreed to pay $131.5 million to settle allegations it underpaid or failed to pay delivery workers in New York City, the company confirmed as of September 23, 2026. The settlement follows DoorDash's roughly $1.4 million in spending during the 2025 New York City mayoral election, where it opposed Zohran Mamdani and backed former Governor Andrew Cuomo. The payout resolves claims covering worker compensation practices in the company's largest US market. Terms of the agreement were not detailed beyond the total figure.
