Socialist stalwarts Sen. and Rep. praised Amazon Labor Union workers during a rally on Staten Island on Sunday for organizing the first successful Amazon union drive in the country. The rally comes three weeks after 55 percent of workers at the Staten Island JFK8 fulfillment center voted to join the Amazon Labor Union. The union is demanding higher pay and job security. 'What you have done in taking on Amazon and having this facility here in Staten Island, the very first Amazon facility to unionize in the entire country, is an extraordinary achievement,' Sanders said. 'You have taken on one of the most powerful corporations in America.'
