WorkWeek looks at the ongoing struggle for unionization at Amazon. The struggle for worker and union rights is growing in the US. One of the key struggle for workers organizing in the United States is at Amazon which has over 1 million workers in the US and around the world.

Thousands of Amazon workers have been fired for union organizing yet the US government allows billionaire owner Jeff Bezos to get away with flagrant violation and conspiracy to violate labor law.

At the New York Staten Island Amazon JFK8 warehouse workers were able to organize the Amazon Labor Union and successfully won a union vote for representation.

WorkWeek interviews ALU Vice president Michelle Valentin Nieves about the conditions at the facility, how they were able to organize and the fight for democracy in their newly formed union.
