Police Break Picket Line, Allow Christmas Deliveries to Stream Out

After hours of Amazon Teamsters maintaining a strong picket line, cops broke the picket line for Amazon.
New York City police officers broke up a picket line of Amazon employees trying to block delivery trucks from leaving a company facility on Thursday.

Earlier in the day, nearly 10,000 Amazon workers in multiple states went on strike, less than a week before Christmas.

The International Brotherhood of Teamsters announced in a news release it launched its strike at seven Amazon facilities located in New York, Atlanta, Southern California, San Francisco and Skokie, Illinois.

“If your package is delayed during the holidays, you can blame Amazon’s insatiable greed. We gave Amazon a clear deadline to come to the table and do right by our members. They ignored it,” said Teamsters General President Sean M. O’Brien.

At an Amazon facility in Queens, the NYPD broke the picket line, allowing delivery trucks to leave, no doubt delivering many Christmas gifts.
