1. Today, the New York City Council is voting on a potential cap for the number of ride-share vehicles allowed in the city -- like Uber, Lyft, Via and more. It's a hot-button issue. Civil rights groups say a cap would mean fewer transportation options for minorities and drive up prices.

2. Elon Musk is continuing his infamous Twitter musings, but yesterday, one of his tweets sent Tesla's stock price upward.
