WASHINGTON, April 1 (Archyde.com) – President Joe Biden was glad to see the voices of Amazon.com Inc. workers being heard, the White House said on Friday, following warehouse employees in New York City York will vote to form the first union at America’s second-largest private employer.

Biden firmly believes that “every worker in every state should have the free and fair choice to join a union,” White House press secretary Jen Psaki told reporters.

Amazon workers on Staten Island “made a decision to organize rank-and-file union bargaining for better jobs and a better life.”
