Fair play, looking out for their drivers.

Quote
As CNBC’s Lauren Feiner reported, Khosrowshahi asked President Donald Trump for help on Monday, both in a letter and on Twitter, for the sake of providing relief to out-of-work gig and platform workers. “I respectfully and urgently request that the economic stimulus you are considering, along with any other future legislative measures in response to COVID-19, include protections and benefits for independent workers, not just employees,” Khosrowshahi wrote.

Free Now, by contrast, advises it's drivers to give discounts and wash their hands.
If it doesn't have a roof sign and door stickers it's not a taxi.

Uber is not asking for the money for themselves - they have $20 billion in the bank, $10 billion of it in cash! 
They're asking for money for their 'partners' who often live in their cars because they get paid so little.
