Amazon workers like Esly deserve a safe and dignified work environment.
DCWP is proud to stand with @amazonteamsters in support of the Delivery Protection Act.
An Amazon driver from Queens posted frequent TikToks documenting her life on the job without incident — until she started speaking up in favor of a City Council bill that Amazon opposes.

They want to be the boss, but not the employer. If we let Amazon and other corporations propagate this model, we are going to seriously undermine the right of workers to organize, fight for better, and hold these companies accountable.
This is the fight of the working class.
We deeply appreciate @CMYusefSalaam standing up for working people and corporate accountability by cosponsoring the DELIVERY PROTECTION ACT.
Thank you!!!
Thank you @CMYusefSalaam for being the latest Councilmember to support The Delivery Protection Act!
With a majority of the New York City Council signed on, we will show companies like Amazon that it can’t exploit NYC any longer.
THE TIME TO PASS THE DELIVERY PROTECTION ACT IS NOW!
By winning record contracts and organizing 100,000 new members in the last few years alone, the Teamsters are charting a new historic chapter.
The Teamsters rank-and-file power can defeat anything and anyone.
We are corporate greed’s worst nightmare.
Amazon is so scared of The Delivery Protection Act it will fire workers who publicly support the bill. This is nothing but an attempt to silence worker voices by threatening our job security.
We won’t let Amazon stop us from fighting for the safety we deserve. The New York City Council can stop Amazon’s abuse by passing The Delivery Protection Act!
My Faster Labor Contracts Act has passed the House!
Newly unionized workers shouldn't have to wait years for their first contract. I appreciate my colleagues on both sides of the aisle for coming together to take this enormous step – now let's finish the job:
🚨BREAKING NEWS 🚨
The Teamsters-led Faster Labor Contracts Act has just passed the U.S. House with bipartisan support.
Together, we will ensure the FLCA also moves through the Senate and is signed into law, so fast first union contracts become a reality for millions of American workers.
Solidarity with Esly Paredes, fired by one of @amazon's "delivery service partners" (which it functionally controls) for posting pro-union content on her own social media.
Remarkable, and telling, that one of the world's largest corporations is this scared of @amazonteamsters.
Tomorrow the U.S. House will vote on the bipartisan Faster Labor Contracts Act. With this vote, it will be unequivocally clear who’s supporting American workers in both word and action — and who’s just paying lip service to get re-elected. The Faster Labor Contracts Act is THE bill. And now is the time. Are you standing with workers or are you standing in our way? #resultsnotexcuses. @HouseGOP@HouseDemocrats
Amazon makes its living by using the corrupt Delivery Service Partner model to exploit workers and hide behind third-party subcontractors when it breaks the law.
It’s time for the Delivery Service Partner model to end. That starts by passing the Delivery Protection Act in New York City.
