BIG UPDATE! CNN reports "Union workers went on strike at Amazon early
Thursday at seven facilities in four states coast to coast just ahead of
the holiday gift-giving rush."
Amazon Labor Union is urgently raising funds to support picket solidarity
efforts: food, transportation, materials, language interpretation, medical
support, cold weather supplies, worker retaliation defense funds, and
legal support.

EARLIER EMAIL:
My name is Connor Spence, and I am the President of Amazon Labor Union IBT
Local 1.
2 ½ years ago, my co-workers and I organized the first union to win an
election at an Amazon warehouse in the United States. Since then, Amazon
has fought us tooth and nail, refusing to bargain a contract with us.
They’ve been fined by the National Labor Relations Board, and instead of
coming to the table, they’re teaming up with Elon Musk in a lawsuit to get
the NLRB declared unconstitutional.
Amazon is one of the wealthiest companies in the world. They can keep us
in court for the rest of time.
Ultimately, Amazon only speaks one language, and that’s money. We’re ready
to withhold our labor if they continue to ignore their legal obligation to
come to the table.
That’s why, during Amazon’s busiest time of year, our union is preparing
to participate in a nationally coordinated workplace action. As a part of
the International Brotherhood of Teamsters, we’re joining many other
warehouses nationwide who have also unionized and demanded recognition
from this company. Our message is clear: We can’t wait anymore.
Amazon’s founder is the 2nd richest man in the world―and he has fought
organizing efforts tooth and nail.
That’s where you come in. Our union is raising funds to support potential
picket solidarity efforts: food, transportation, materials, language
interpretation, medical support, cold weather supplies, worker retaliation
defense funds, and legal support.

Amazon Labor Union is built on solidarity. Amazon is a massive company,
one of the most exploitative in the world. It will take a coordinated,
international movement to hold this company accountable. We’ve survived
these years thanks to the support of a movement that has been there for us
when we asked. This is a crucial time. Amazon Labor Union is grateful for
the Progressive Change Campaign Committee's support.
In solidarity,
– Connor Spence, President, Amazon Labor Union, IBT Local 1
