# Amazon union joins forces with truck driver union, may jointly pressure Amazon to raise wages in the future

According to the financial news app Zhitong Finance, the American e-commerce and cloud computing leader Amazon (AMZN.US) has decided to ally with one of the largest labor organizations in the United States through a vote by union members. This latest partnership may further help Amazon employees exert pressure on the e-commerce and cloud computing giant in collective contract negotiations, such as pushing for salary increases and other employee benefits.

It is reported that the Amazon Labor Union (ALU) stated in a joint declaration that approximately 98% of ALU members voted in favor of establishing ties with one of the largest labor organizations in the United States - the International Brotherhood of Teamsters (also known as the American Teamsters Union). They pledged to work together to ensure the continuity of Amazon employees' work and a more dignified working environment.

At the time of this report, the journalists were unable to immediately reach an Amazon spokesperson for comment.

The Amazon Labor Union (ALU) achieved a milestone victory in 2022 by organizing a large group of workers at an Amazon factory on Staten Island. However, the union declared defeat in the subsequent two elections and faced conflicts between union leaders like Chris Smalls and other senior officials. Efforts to bring Amazon executives to the negotiating table have also largely been unsuccessful.

Smalls previously stated that he and 15 other senior leaders of the ALU alliance reached an important agreement with Teamsters President Sean O'Brien and his colleagues in Washington. According to their joint statement, O'Brien's organization represents up to approximately 1.3 million American workers
