Amazon Workers Strike At Multiple Facilities Over Labor Contract

UNITED STATES – Workers at 7 Amazon facilities went on strike Thursday, led by the Teamsters Union.

The union says the strike follows Amazon’s failure to meet a Sunday deadline for labor negotiations.

Strikes are happening at warehouses and delivery stations in cities like San Francisco, New York, Atlanta, and Illinois, during a crucial shopping season.

The company denies the union’s claims and insists many strikers aren’t its employees but work for third-party contractors.
