Teamsters Local 671 supports the Building Trades rally at new Amazon facility being built on Kennedy Road in Windsor, CT. This rally was held to protest the use of non-union and out of state labor being used to build this facility instead of in-state union labor.
“We’re going to put Amazon on notice about the exploitation of workers,” said Joe Toner, president of the Hartford Building Trades Council.
The building trades unions, Connecticut AFL-CIO, leaders of the General Assembly’s Labor Committee and others say Amazon’s hiring of out-of-state contractors on a 3.5 million square-foot distribution center in Windsor puts Connecticut at risk of a COVID-19 outbreak.
