Milestone Amazon union vote nears end, but the battle may just be beginning
CNN
One year to the day after workers first stepped inside a new Amazon warehouse in Bessemer, Alabama, a milestone union vote at the facility is set to come to an end.
Monday is the final day for ballots to be received by the National Labor Relations Board in order to be counted in the election. The vote -- a tally of which is expected later in the week -- will determine whether the Bessemer workers form the first US union in Amazon's 27-year history. For nearly two months, thousands of Amazon warehouse workers have been eligible to cast their vote by mail on whether to unionize. Workers have had to make the decision while sifting through competing messages from union organizers, celebrities, politicians -- including President Biden -- and Amazon which had been posting signs in bathroom stalls and pulling workers into meetings before the start of the election period.
