We're fighting to make Amazon recognize our union, & as a result of our win, they’re in federal court arguing unions are unconstitutional. If they win, a century of worker rights could be undone. Public support is vital to keep up the fight—can you help? https://t.co/XgGTnnLZCz

Leaked documents show Amazon considered becoming a good corporate citizen. No evidence that it moved forward with the plan though. https://t.co/aZT7MB1ktT

Another day, another Amazon abuse exposed. Thank you @NewJerseyOAG for taking this crucial step to protect Amazon workers and end the company's corrupt scheme to misclassify Flex drivers as independent contractors.
NJ has no tolerance for companies that generate billions in profits by denying employees rightful wages, benefits, and other protections. With @NJLaborDept we're suing Amazon to end the company's greed-driven employee exploitation through its Flex program. https://t.co/zXmqBGXCQq

Too much is at stake. Amazon sets the standard for the global supply chain, driving a race to the bottom where efficiency is valued over human dignity. Our labor laws are outdated, automation is accelerating, and workers’ rights and our very dignity are on the line.

Pregnant workers at Amazon are illegally denied basic accommodations and are instead forced into dangerous conditions, punished for speaking up, or pushed onto unpaid leave. Systemic pregnancy discrimination is a choice Amazon executives make every day in pursuit of profit.

Unsafe conditions are routine at Amazon despite the company’s immense wealth. Only an unmitigated disaster and strong collective action could draw out a humane response from Amazon. ✊ Read Yackisha’s op-ed here: https://t.co/jqQHjsky6M
