Starbucks Workers United

We're a worker-led union of 12,000+ Starbucks partners ☕️ ✊ Change is brewing!

When both Democrats AND Republicans think Starbucks's union-busting is out of line...

Companies like Starbucks shouldn't be allowed to get away with repeated federal complaints over refusing to negotiate with workers.

One easy change you can make to fight back against corporate greed:

STOP BUYING STARBUCKS.

Here's why:

When Starbucks baristas in Roswell, GA filed for a union election, corporate panicked and immediately gave workers more hours... even though staffing requests had been ignored for months.

Taking action as a union is how we win better conditions on the job!

Continued solidarity with union allies is how we’ll make our workplaces - and the world - a better place for everyone.

Thank you to everyone who is helping us win a better future for the working class!

BREAKING: Starbucks baristas at the University Heights store in Providence, RI just won their union!!! Congratulations!

(this cat is not part of the bargaining unit but told local reporters all union-busters deserve hair balls in their shoes)

[Rep. John Larson @RepJohnLarson]

I'm proud to stand with workers like @SBWorkersUnited baristas in West Hartford, who are still fighting for a fair contract.

When companies drag their feet, @DonaldNorcross' Faster Labor Contracts Act will hold their feet to the fire. Today, we forced a vote, and we passed it!

In case you needed a reminder: union baristas are still asking you to NOT BUY STARBUCKS at ANY location.

and Starbucks wonders why 700 stores have voted for a union

It was great talking to you, @RepMarkPocan !

Listen to an SBWU bargaining delegate talk about the realities behind working at Starbucks:

[Rep. Mark Pocan @RepMarkPocan]

Starbucks workers are fighting for a living wage. Last year, Starbucks’ CEO made more than $30 million while many baristas relied on SNAP and Medicaid to make ends meet.

@SBWorkersUnited is working to change that and has already won elections at nearly 700 locations. I spoke with Jasmine Leli, a Starbucks barista and one of the leaders in this new labor movement, about the victories they’ve had so far and the work ahead.

This is what democracy in the workplace looks like. Let’s go, union baristas in Lancaster PA! 💪

[Starbucks Workers United @SBWorkersUnited]

we know that’s right ✊🔥

[Pramila Jayapal @PramilaJayapal]

Starbucks baristas striking all over the country. REI workers organizing. Teachers walking out for better pay.

This is what a movement looks like.

The labor movement built the middle class. It created the weekend, the 8-hour workday, and overtime pay. And it is the only force powerful enough to push back against concentrated corporate power.

I stand with every single worker fighting for dignity and I will keep fighting in Congress for union rights and for an economy that works for everyone — not just the people at the top.

To love is to unionize✊

Thanks for the shout out Game Changer and Ally Beardsley!

[Liz Shuler @LizShuler]

A new @EconomicPolicy report found that US companies are spending more than $1.5 billion a year on union-busting consultants and lawyers. They’ll spend unlimited money crushing workers’ voices and then claim there’s no money for better conditions.

Shame on Starbucks for their recent promo in South Korea evoking the violent military repression of pro-democracy protestors.

We stand in solidarity with pro-democracy movements globally. The fight for a union is a fight for democracy!

[AFL-CIO ✊ @AFLCIO]

Starbucks @SBWorkersUnited baristas are organizing, mobilizing and fighting for a fair contract in the face of unprecedented corporate greed. Along with all of America’s unions, they now have the solidarity and strength of 700 union stores standing with them. Change is brewing ✊
