In the highly publicized, long-awaited vote, just 12.5% of eligible workers at Amazon’s Bessemer, Alabama, warehouse voted in favor of unionizing under the Retail, Wholesale and Department Store Union. The final vote to reject the union follows an influx of campaigning from Big Labor, and as evidenced by the recent headlines, union organizers are refusing to accept defeat.
The votes are in, and the outcome is apparent: The workers do not want a union. Despite the response from labor organizers and the media’s portrayal of the vote, framing the outcome as a loss for Amazon’s Bessemer employees is simply untrue. The RWDSU’s push to challenge the results proves that it is not really about what the employees want. It is about labor bosses forcing their pro-union agenda on America’s workers.
