Washington , D.C. , Attorney General Brian Schwalb accuses Amazon of "secretly" excluding two ZIP codes in the capital city from expedited delivery.

In 2022 , Amazon allegedly stopped using its own delivery trucks to shuttle packages in the ZIP codes 20019 and 20020 .

The decision caused more than 48,000 Prime members to see slower delivery speeds than the rest of the district.

Amazon says the complaint is "false on the facts and the law".
