Friend
these past days have been busy for us. With Amazon Prime Day coming in, hundreds of community members who are immigrants, workers, children and their families united to demand Jeff Bezos cut Amazon’s ties with ICE and truly respect their warehouse workers. Right this second, Amazon is overworking their employees just to meet their one or two day shipping policy, while workers have to pee in bottles and many times pass out because of their terrible working conditions.
We protested outside of Jeff Bezos home and then marched to Amazon's corporate office, just like community members in over nine cities, to demand justice. #NeverAgainisNow and with all of the children, mothers, and families suffering -- and even dying -- at the bloody hands of ICE, now is the time to rise up.
More than 275,000+ people across the country signed on to decry Bezos’s immigration and worker abuses. Now we need YOU to take action to make sure Amazon hears us.
Keep Fighting,
Sol Freire
Digital Director
