The Amazon Labor Twitter hasn’t posted since April 2022. They have so far been unsuccessful in unionizing any other Amazon facilities. According to this article, the union’s funding has dried up since 2022, and workers in the ALU sued the union for alleged anti-democratic practices in 2023.
Is it over for them?

ALU has been struggling for ages between the group that has the bureaucratic power (the Chris Smalls fanclub) and everyone else. Individual warehouses are attempting to unionize themselves, usually without ALU help, and plan to decide on who to associate with later. There are various orgs taking their own approaches to unionizing Amazon, to varying success.
I’d say ALU itself continues to be in crisis but the project of organizing Amazon warehouses is very much alive.
In my pov no , no union can have a future by focusing on a sect , for unions to function there is a need for cooperation between unions in different sectors
