Considering that Sanders and Warren recently made an important gesture in support of workers, it’s not a great look for the two progressive senators to be the only candidates to spend over six-figures with the aggressively anti-union giant.

A similar phenomenon is occurring on the 2020 trail, where progressive candidates like Bernie Sanders and Elizabeth Warren are calling for substantial reform for the e-commerce giant, while their campaigns throw six-figure sums Jeff Bezos’s way.
In March, following a report of employee threats of suicide, Sanders tweeted that Amazon “must recognize that workers’ rights don’t stop at the minimum wage” and “must significantly improve working conditions at its warehouses and respect the constitutional right of its employees to form a union and bargain collectively for a better life.”
