Excerpt:
Amazon may have issued a "declaration of support" in January for a lawsuit against President Trump's order to put a temporary halt to immigration from seven Muslim-majority countries, but that hasn't stopped outraged Muslims from planning a May 1 demonstration at the front door of the company's headquarters in Seattle.
The Service Employees International Union and three Muslim guards who work for Security Industry Specialists, the security contractor Amazon uses to guard its facility, accuse SIS, and by implication Amazon, of refusing to allow the guards space to pray five times daily, even though members of other religions are granted the privilege of using prayer rooms.
Essag Hassan, a former SIS guard at Amazon, said he was let go because of his request to be allowed to pray on his work break.
