Staten Island Amazon Workers Vote To Form Company's First Union

The vote is being called one of the most significant pro-labor votes in a generation, with potential ripple effects on warehouses across the country.

Change is coming to at least one Amazon warehouse. 

In a historic first for Amazon — one of the largest private employers in the country — workers in Staten Island voted to unionize.

"This is a prime example of what the power that people have when they come together," Amazon Labor Union President Chris Smalls said.
