    Amazon Teamsters rallied outside City Hall today, during the New York City Council’s final meeting of the year, to demand passage of the Delivery Protection Act in 2026 and to call out Council Speaker Adrienne Adams for siding with Amazon over eight million hardworking New Yorkers.



    Despite bipartisan, supermajority support on the City Council, Adams has blocked the legislation by refusing to hold a hearing on the bill. The Delivery Protection Act would rein in abusive last-mile delivery operations by requiring basic licensing, safety standards, and accountability for companies like Amazon.



    “The Delivery Protection Act is the only way for New York City to hold Amazon accountable for years of union-busting and endangering our communities,” said Matt Multari, a worker at the DBK1 facility in Woodside, Queens. “Amazon Teamsters at DBK1 and DBK4 have successfully taken the Delivery Protection Act from obscurity to supermajority support in just a few weeks, and we’re confident we’ll pass it under new leadership next year.”
