 Nov. 20, 2025 | ORGANIZING | In a first-of-its-kind victory, Amazon CDL drivers at the SDF9 facility in Shepherdsville, Ky., have become the first group of Amazon semi-truck and tractor-trailer drivers nationwide to join the Teamsters. The Amazon Transportation Operations Management (TOM) Team drivers chose representation by Teamsters Local 89. …The drivers, who transport freight across Amazon properties and facilities, have been quietly organizing for more than a year to prevent Amazon from union-busting.
