Three Amazon employees who testified in favor of a data center moratorium in Seattle have claimed they are facing consequences from their employer, in violation of a Seattle ordinance.
As reported by Bloomberg, the employees in question are Darius Irani, Patrick Schloesser, and Liesl Wigand, all of whom are members of Amazon Employees for Climate Justice (AECJ).

The three employees claim that following their public statements regarding the data center moratorium, they were called into separate virtual meetings with an HR staff member and informed that the company was investigating them.
The employees claim they were intimidated during the call, are facing scrutiny at work, and may be terminated.
