Wouldn't it be a better idea to pressure the state Govt to pass laws or executive orders to mandate that Companies provide benefits such as Hazard Pay, PPE for workers, Paid Sick Leave instead of striking and attempting to pressure Instacart / Amazon ?

There's a record number of unemployed people right now [1] and, if some workers strike, wouldn't it be easier for companies to just hire more people ?

Organized labor has traditionally driven those changes in laws from the bottom up. So, if you want to get to that legislation, this is a good place to start.
