The presidents of the United Food and Commercial Workers, Communications Workers of America, and United Auto Workers wrote separate letters last month announcing that their unions would resign from the National Consumer League’s board of directors immediately, citing the Seattle-based e-commerce giant’s partnership with the Giving Group.
“Unfortunately, it has become obvious over the past several months that the NCL leadership now prioritizes funding from anti-labor businesses like Amazon over its traditional pro-labor and pro-consumer mission,” the presidents of the CWA and UFCW wrote. In a letter to the union, the president of the auto workers claimed he had no choice but to quit because of the consumer group’s choices on “partnering with Amazon and following board debates.” |
