BREAKING NEWS: The Amazon Labor Union has fully and officially completed its affiliation with the Teamsters Union, following a ruling on Thursday from the National Labor Relations Board rejecting outstanding objections by Amazon.   ALU members at Amazon’s JFK8 fulfillment center voted this summer by over 98% to affiliate with the Teamsters.   The ruling further establishes ALU-IBT Local 1, a newly chartered local union of the Teamsters, as the representative for 5,500 Amazon warehouse workers at JFK8 on Staten Island. Local 1 will have jurisdiction to organize and represent Amazon workers throughout New York’s five boroughs — and will carry the full power and resources of the 1.3 million-member Teamsters Union to take on the trillion-dollar corporation.   The decision by the NLRB arrives just hours before Teamsters General President Sean M. O’Brien, U.S. Congressman Adam Schiff, rank-and-file Amazon Teamsters, UPS Teamsters, and other supporters and legislators rally in California to hold Amazon accountable to the hundreds of thousands of delivery drivers and warehouse workers it employs.   Watch live the “Amazon Teamsters Day of Solidarity” Rally starting at 6:45pm ET / 3:45pm PT!

A bill to protect performers from unauthorized AI replicas was approved by the California Senate on Tuesday and will soon head to the governor’s desk. SAG-AFTRA has made the bill one of its top legislative priorities this year. AB 2602 would require explicit consent for the use of a “digital replica” of a performer. variety.com/2024/politics/…
