Since December 2021, more than 12,000 Starbucks workers nationwide have joined the union. But instead of sitting down and negotiating a fair contract with the union, Starbucks just decided to shutter 400 stores -- including 59 union locations.
Starbucks’ CEO made $96 million in his first year with the company, and his solutions are to close stores and add AI to every step of the process, while ramping up union busting.
Meanwhile, workers are still facing short staffing, unpredictable scheduling, low pay, and rising health care costs in addition to countless unfair labor practices.
Starbucks baristas are fighting back. Workers have just authorized an unfair labor practice strike. We need to stand in solidarity with the workers whose labor made Starbucks a global icon in the first place.
Stand with baristas: chip in to support their fight.
Your donation will be split evenly between the Starbucks Workers United Strike Fund and the Labor Force's ongoing work to support the union. Every dollar helps fuel this movement!
