Amazon threatens to pull 5,000 jobs from NYC over Mamdani’s labour bill
- Amazon has threatened to move 5,000 delivery jobs out of New York City if Mayor Zohran Mamdani's labour bill passes.
- The proposed bill would require Amazon to directly hire delivery workers instead of employing them through third-party contractors.
- • Amazon warned it could also shut over a dozen warehouses, putting another 2,000 warehouse workers' jobs at risk.
- Experts point to Amazon's 2025 closure of seven warehouses in Canada's Quebec, which led to nearly 4,700 job losses.
