Injured Amazon Worker on Proposed Settlement: ‘My First Amendment Right Is Worth More Than $3,500’

‘You can’t collect unemployment and you can’t use your First Amendment right to speak out about any type of experience you had at Amazon’

RUSH EXCERPT:

ALLEN: "They did. They did offer me $3,500, after of the first year you are offered $2,000 to quit and then they offered me an extra $1,500 in cobra payments for my medical injury that I still have. And I declined that offer, because you have to sign a nondisclosure agreement which also means that you can’t talk about the inside workings of Amazon, you can’t talk about how much money you received, or you can’t sue them, you can’t collect unemployment and you can’t use your First Amendment right to speak out about any type of experience you had at Amazon. And my First Amendment right is worth more than $3,500."
