AM/NY Op-Ed Amazon Two Day Shipping dangerous "Last Mile delivery center"-culprits

An Op-Ed by CMs Tiffany Caban, Alexa Aviles & Theodore Moore of ALIIGN make cogent points about the Last Mile delivery centers spawned by Amazon under different names. Endangering the workers-clad in Amazon vests but not Amazon emloyees in the streets and the neighborhoods where the centers are located. The CMs have introduced 2 bills to address issues. First is "to crack down" on the pollution facilities dump into the air". The second "The Delivery Protection Act" requires companies to directly employ drivers and warehouse workers. Protect them from retaliation and ensure safety on the job. Clearly tech has run amuck. Big tech has caused a radical and dangerous imbalance in wealth distribution and the trickle down effect is exploitation and damage to quality of life.****https://www.amny.com/news/op-ed-amazon-nyc-two-day-shipping/
