Amazon has fired the warehouse worker who organized a walkout yesterday to protest the level of coronavirus protections at the company’s Staten Island facility: cnn.com/2020/03/30/tec…
Amazon says the worker was fired because he was supposed to be under quarantine, not out and about. Amazon says that put others at risk.
The worker, Chris Smalls, says Amazon is the one putting people at risk by not closing and sanitizing the warehouse.

Now NYAG Letitia James is getting involved, calling for an NLRB investigation and promising to consider “all legal options." 
NEW: Smalls tells me he intends to file a complaint with the NLRB on his firing from Amazon.
He gave no timeframe for it, saying his first priority is to get local government officials to close the Staten Island warehouse. But, he said: “Legal action will be taken in due time."
