Amazon Labor Union - International Brotherhood of Teamsters Local 1 (ALU- IBT Local 1) is on strike alongside Amazon facilities across the country.

Tell Amazon, I stand with ALU-IBT Local 1!

In April 2022, workers at Amazon’s JFK8 facility in Staten Island voted by a significant margin to unionize with the Amazon Labor Union—the first (and still the only) successful attempt at unionizing a U.S. Amazon facility. The union’s victory at the nation’s second largest employer was heralded at the time as a significant development both for the workers involved and for the U.S. labor movement as a whole. Since then, however, Amazon has failed to recognize the ALU-IBT Local 1 and refused to bargain in good faith with the union.

What happens on Staten Island has an impact on Amazon workers across the country. Amazon’s steadfast refusal to come to the bargaining table sends a message that employers can flout their legal obligations under the National Labor Relations Act with impunity. While Amazon continues to engage in illegal actions against the workers of ALU-IBT Local 1, the company is also seeking to abolish the National Labor Relations Board – further demonstrating its blatant disregard for the law and the working-class.

Amazon workers at JFK8 are preparing to strike to send a different message—that corporate intimidation and trampling workers’ basic rights will not be tolerated.

Please add your name and tell Amazon:

• Stop breaking the law and come to the bargaining table.

• No retaliation towards any workers for taking protected collective action.

• All workers who engage in collective action are guaranteed a safe return to work, free of harassment and disciplinary action.
