Senators Bernie Sanders and Elizabeth Warren are pressing Amazon.com Inc. Chief Executive Officer Jeff Bezos about whether the company is illegally interfering with the right of Whole Foods workers to organize.

In a joint letter to Bezos dated Oct. 16, Warren and Sanders cited a leaked video that they said "expressed explicit opposition to union organizing on the part of Whole Foods employees and makes several statements that appear to direct supervisors to take actions that are illegal" under U.S. labor law, including anti-union threats.
