My STATEMENT on the Amazon workers' fight (thread):

There are two historic stories being told today about the labor movement.

In the northeast, we’re seeing one of the most consequential victories for unions play out, with a historic win for Amazon workers in Staten Island.
In the deep south—win or lose—the progress made there is just as consequential for what the future holds for labor. We must ensure as this process plays out that every vote is counted.
The results in both New York and Alabama make one thing clear: there is an exciting future for working people to organize even against the biggest and richest companies with the harshest anti-union campaigns.

BREAKING: RWDSU is formally filing Objections and ULP charges against Amazon’s blatantly illegal conduct during the @BAmazonUnion election. We won’t rest until workers’ voices are heard fairly under the law--and when they are, we believe they will be victorious. #BAmazonUnion #1u
We won’t let Amazon’s lies, deception and illegal activities go unchallenged.

Amazon knew full well that unless they did everything they possibly could, even illegal activity, their workers would have continued supporting the union.
That’s why they required all their employees to attend lecture after lecture, filled with mistruths and lies, where workers had to listen to the company demand they oppose the union.

#UnionYes #BAmazon
The #BAmazon workers in Bessemer, Alabama are predominantly Black workers. They formed the #BAmazonUnion, & won the right to vote for union representation by @RWDSU. This is a history-changing worker struggle, fighting one of the biggest & most powerful corporations in the world!
@amazon & it’s super rich union- busting owner, @JeffBezos, are doing everything possible to stop the #BAmazonUnion! These workers are standing up to the racist, anti-union laws that suppress labor across the South.

NYC: Join us in solidarity with the #BAmazonUnion workers!
