AMAZON,WORKERS,STRIKE

Thousands of Amazon workers, organized under the Teamsters union, went on strike after the company refused to negotiate new contracts. The strike, involving seven facilities across the US, is the largest against Amazon in American history. Workers are demanding higher wages, better benefits, and safer working conditions.

Thousands of Amazon workers organized under the Teamsters union went on strike at 6 a.m. Thursday after the company's "repeated refusal to follow the law and bargain." Amazon Teamsters at seven facilities in Skokie, Illinois; New York City, Atlanta, San Francisco and Southern California are participating in the "largest strike" against the trillion-dollar company in American history, the union said in a news release. Workers at other facilities are prepared to join them.
