Amazon workers in Alabama to get another union election

Bessemer workers will hold a second vote based on objections to the first one, but labor experts say victory is a long shot

A new union election for Amazon workers in Bessemer, Alabama, will be held based on objections to the first vote that took place in April.

The move is a major blow to Amazon, which had spent about a year aggressively campaigning for warehouse workers in Bessemer to reject the union, which they ultimately did by a wide margin.
