I want you to be right, I really do. The problem as far as I can see it is that Amazon can simply shift the work load away from that facility and then close it, and open a new one somewhere else. Unions no longer have the protections they need. Technically, Amazon could simply shut down that facility for 1 year and 1 day, and then reopen it and the Union will no longer exist. I have serious doubts about whether Amazon cares about the negative press they would get for doing exactly that.
