Amazon warehouse workers on Staten Island have enough support for a union election, federal officials have ruled. That could mean the second unionization vote for Amazon this year.
The National Labor Relations Board says it has found "sufficient showing of interest" among Amazon workers at a Staten Island warehouse to set up a vote. The board's ruling on Wednesday comes days before Alabama warehouse workers begin their re-vote on whether to join a union.
At stake is whether Amazon might get its first unionized warehouse in the United States. The company has grown into the country's second-largest private employer with almost 1 million U.S. workers as of last year.

I have a great niece (pseudo daughter) who has worked for Amazon for just under a year. She is a high school graduate and works an hourly, non union job. She is now making $20 an hour

SGT Charlie Lee - I understand that. I managed businesses for over 40 years, both union and non union. I shared this because I was shocked at such a rate for so short a time.
