California Attorney General Xavier Becerra said Monday he’s escalating efforts to force Amazon.com Inc. to cooperate with an ongoing probe of worker safety conditions during the coronavirus pandemic.
Becerra said Amazon hasn’t fully complied with his office’s demand for information from four months ago and that California is now asking a judge to order cooperation with the state’s investigation into the company’s policies and protocols.
