Amazon Labor Union Defends Immigrant Workers

from #WorldOutlook
March 12, 2025

"The following is a statement by the #AmazonLaborUnion – International Brotherhood of Teamsters (#ALU-IBT) Local 1 defending immigrant workers from government and employer attacks. The #ALU represents #Amazon workers at the company’s giant JFK8 warehouse in Staten Island, New York.

The #ALU statement sets a good example of how the labor movement needs to treat immigrant workers: as fellow workers, as brothers and sisters.

This question has become urgent as the Trump administration has escalated raids, arrests, and deportations of immigrants under the guise of expelling “foreign criminals” from the United States. "

This move by TSA certainly should reassure anyone that has a contract with the feds about whether the Trump regime will honor it.

' The department’s move could add uncertainty within a labor force that secures the nation’s transportation system. “Nobody wants to work in a place where you have no rights or workplace protections,” said [AFGE union official Johnny] Jones, a 22-year TSA employee. '

"So long as millions of human beings in every country has to sell their labour-power to a small minority of owners, and to sink into the most wretched misery if they could find no buyers, the so called “equality before the law” remains a pious fraud, since the laws are made by those who find themselves in possession of the social wealth. But in the same way there can also be no talk of a “right over one's own person,” for that right ends when one is compelled to submit to the economic dictation of another if he does not want to starve."
