Closed shops have been illegal since 1935, do some research before you post

So if your only viable choice to make a living is to sell your ability to labor to a company/someone else, does that also count as no choice at all ... commie?

If they can just get it through nationwide they’ll have Jeffey by the balls. That’s certainly not realistic at this point though. Too much division among states, and state laws/guidelines.

The law(s) are rarely on our side

Its why AB5 in CA was such a big deal for unions. It pretty much made all of Amazon's driver's "employees" and not contractors. Of course amazon is fighting it in the courts.

Do they still need to fight it? Didn’t Prop 22 give them the win?

Prop 22 was for app based transportation and delivery companies.

"When counting ended Thursday night, there were 1,100 votes against unionization and 463 votes in support, with about half the ballots counted. The preliminary results put Amazon ahead by more than a 2-1 margin."

Amazon has a 600+ vote lead with about 1600 votes left to count.

Where do we go from here?

I found this to be quite shocking. What the hell is going on down there?

@BigUnionGuy are they friend’ed now since Alabama laid a big fat egg?

It's going to take a lot more time and money.

It might have been the wrong Union, at the wrong time, and in the wrong place.

whatever
If they don't want to be the first. We can make it the Troutdale building under the PDX AWSC

Should have tried in a more union friendly state. Once one see the benefits of increased pay and bennies, wouldn't be a hard in less friendly areas.
