Amazon Seeks To Drum Up Support From Its Sellers To Fight US Antitrust Bills

Amazon.com Inc AMZN has launched a website to communicate Congress's Big Tech-related antitrust proposals with its sellers.
Sellers will be able to communicate with elected officials about the bills directly via the website.
Amazon recently mailed selected sellers regarding the legislation asking them to arrange a telephonic meeting to discuss the bills.
A dominant conglomerate like Amazon remains vulnerable to the Monopolies Act over anti-competitive concerns, CNBC reports.
Amazon seeks to convey to third-party sellers how the legislation could jeopardize their prospects by severing their links with Amazon.
Amazon is already battling an antitrust lawsuit in India for the alleged preferential treatment of selected sellers.
Amazon, Facebook Inc FB, and Alphabet Inc GOOG GOOGL have backed the U.S. Chamber of Commerce, and the Connected Commerce Council, who have already opposed the bills.
Amazon and Google had also stepped up their lobbying efforts amid the growing antitrust crackdown.
Price Action: AMZN shares traded higher by 0.36% at $3,199.78 on the last check Friday.
