An Uber driver is accused of refusing to drive a group of congressional interns in Washington carrying “Make America Great Again” hats.

Matthew Handy, an intern for Rep. Mike Bost (R-Ill.), said that he and three other interns hailed an Uber car near George Washington University. He said he was holding “my faithful red MAGA hat in my hand” as he was going to a monthly meeting.
