CHICAGO (CBS) -- Protesters on the West Side will be back out today standing together against Amazon after a delayed opening of its new facility in Humboldt Park.

We first heard from the group back in February.

According to activist groups - they say amazon is backing away from its goal to hire workers from the West Side through community-based job programs. They say they're tired of the broken promises. 

A protest is scheduled for later this morning.
