Amazon held up the certification for nine months through legal objections, but the NLRB has again dismissed Amazon’s complaints.

Amazon Labor Union, which unionized an Amazon warehouse in April, announced it’s organizing at a facility near Albany, New York.

Workers at an Amazon warehouse in Staten Island, New York, have voted 2,654 to 2,131 to join the brand-new grassroots Amazon Labor Union.

NLRB ordered a new election after Amazon broke labor law at its Alabama warehouse. Ballots, mailed out Feb. 4, will be counted March 28.

Local building trade unions have been picketing the colossal construction site to protest out-of-state contractors and subpar wages.

It’s one of the most far-reaching settlements to date after Amazon was found guilty of trampling workers’ rights to unionize.

Amazon’s “flagrant disregard” for labor law was so egregious that a new election must be held at its distribution center in Bessemer.

At the Bessemer “fulfillment center” workers rejected the Retail, Wholesale and Department Store Union 738 to 1,798.
