The campaign against the $3 billion Amazon deal just gained more union muscle.

The Teamsters are joining the coalition campaigning against the massive tax credit and subsidy package awarded by city and state politicians to land an Amazon headquarters in Queens.

“Wherever Amazon goes, the company has a track record of mistreating workers and violating their rights,” said Teamsters Council 16 president George Miranda. “If the company will not change its ways, it should not expect $3 billion of subsidies from taxpayers.”
