"Industry will always argue that safeguards hurt business, and therefore workers and communities must simply accept exploitation and pollution. In both cases, policymakers should not be misled." citylimits.org/opinion-a-saf…

SOLIDARITY with Amazon workers in Woodside, Queens who announced they are unionizing with @Teamsters @804_local to build power and fight for a fair contract with higher wages and safer working conditions!

The workers who wear Amazon vests and drive vans with the company’s logo aren’t legally employed by Amazon. But that could change in NYC, under legislation that Teamsters, Amazon workers, and the Democratic Socialists of America are organizing to pass labornotes.org/2026/10/amazo…
It’s Amazon’s Big Deal Prime Day, which means the $3 trillion company will be making billions of dollars in sales this week.
But how much of the profits are going to the workers who run Amazon?
We asked @amazonteamsters how they are fighting for higher wages:
Amazon delivers danger:
🚸2,162 citations for speeding in school zones
🧯2,051 for obstructing fire hydrants
🚲1,340 for blocking pedestrian or cyclist space
@SpeakerMenin: Put the Delivery Protection Act to a vote and hold Amazon accountable!
nyc.streetsblog.org/2026/09/…
Nearly 15,000 safety violations on NYC’s streets.
This is how Amazon operates in our communities.
We need to pass the Delivery Protection Act so we can hold Amazon accountable for harming workers and causing havoc on our streets.

We are pleased to see @GovKathyHochul acknowledge that New Yorkers cannot afford a raise freeze as costs of living is sky rocketing.
Let’s work together to strengthen the law by removing all off-ramps that freeze raises and establishing wage parity upstate.

Mr. Mayor we’re on the steps of city hall to ask you to lower our bills 💰, cut pollution 🎉 and create good jobs 💪
Help our communities on climate policy like you said you would!

This is why we need to pass the Delivery Protection Act. Amazon creates dangerous conditions on our streets and refuses to take accountability

Amazon delivers danger.
Amazon amassed over 14,000 safety violations since 2020, including thousands of citations for speeding in school zones, blocking fire hydrants, running red lights, and more.

Our schools should be safe and functional, no exceptions. Instead, they’re not only dangerous, but they’re ruining the ability to learn, too
@NYCMayor's 'Pothole Politics’ should mean fixing our broken schools too.

“Green Schools were actually part of Mayor Mamdani’s campaign platform. They connect so many of the mayor’s priorities: child care, safe work, good jobs, and fixing what’s broken in our day-to-day. But so far, we’ve seen no action.” citylimits.org/opinion-potho…

Breaking 🚨
@NYCMayor Mamdani Delivers Largest Labor Enforcement Action in the City’s History
DoorDash agreed to a $131.5 million settlement with the city for failing to pay nearly 260,000 delivery workers since 2022
New for @Documentedny
documentedny.com/2026/09/22/…
✊HUGE victory for @LosDeliveristas holding @DoorDash accountable and winning back stolen wages!
NEW VICTORY- Deliveristas won a historic $131.5 million DoorDash settlement!
This victory belongs to the courageous workers who organized, and fought back when their wages were stolen and built a powerful union - @LosDeliveristas.
Thank you, @NYCMayor @helloDCWP.

Amazon has spent $5 million on an astroturf campaign trying to stop a new law protecting Amazon drivers. New Yorkers see right through it.
We need the City Council to ignore Amazon’s shady lobbying, listen to workers, and pass the Delivery Protection Act!
