Happening today: Amazon workers will vote on whether to unionize at another warehouse on Staten Island.

"The time is now to stand up to our oligarchy, to stand up to excessive corporate greed and create an economy that works for all, not just a few," Sanders said. The results of the next vote are expected on May 2.

Amazon is already seeking to overturn the first election. The company filed with the National Labor Relations Board arguing the vote was tainted by organizers.
