It all began with the workers.
On April 1st, 2022, Amazon workers at the JFK8 Fulfilment Center on Staten Island made history by voting to form the first Amazon Union in U.S. history.
Our demands are simple: better pay, better benefits, and better working conditions. Amazon workers know the only way we’re going to pressure the company into treating us with respect is by uniting under one banner and exercising our right to come together as a worker-led union.
In 2024, ALU affiliated with the International Brotherhood of Teamsters to become ALU-IBT.
