A very real & tangible way to see the value of a union, & the gains we’ve made despite @Starbucks refusal to bargain with us.
These changes are due to organizing, because Starbucks will stop at no length to silence us.
This is also why we MUST KEEP GOING ✊ #WhyWeOrganize
🚨 🚨 🚨UNION WINS THREAD ALERT: Less than a year ago, there were ZERO unionized Starbucks stores in the US. Today, there are 258! Let’s take a look at some of the incredible things workers have fought for and WON over the past year…
Tara Blvd partners became the SIXTH unionized store here in the Peach State!!
Jonesboro partners successfully voted 18-1 in favor of joining @SBWorkersUnited
The answer here is simple — there is no better way to solve the problems Starbucks workers are facing than to sit down with our union and bargain. Together, we can solve the very issues Narasimhan is identifying and make Starbucks a better company for both customers & workers!
Yesterday, a National Labor Relations Board judge found Starbucks has ILLEGALLY withheld pay increases and benefits from union stores.
The decision orders Starbucks to provide affected workers with backpay, increased benefits, and more -

More proof that in company communications top @Starbucks executives “opened it’s pocketbook in direct response to a concern that @SBWorkersUnited was successfully campaigning on partner pay”
They also cited concern for a “return to more conservative raises in the future”

If you haven’t done so already, head to our website and learn more about how to join us in this fight today!!
Do you want to return to “conservative” (@Starbucks words) wage increases or the “historic, unprecedented” (also their words) benefits were fighting for????
Saluda Pointe partners in Lexington, South Carolina just voted UNANIMOUSLY by a vote of 12-0 to join @SBWorkersUnited!!
Welcome, brothers & sisters!!! Let’s do this ✊😤
#SolidaritySZN
Over 1,200 customers, allies, friends, and partners - all hitting the ground today in an act of solidarity against union-busting 🥲
LET’S MAKE SOME NOISE ✊🔥
#SolidaritySeason
Me thinks the timing is a little coincidental 😂 😂 🤣
You know…these companies like @Starbucks could just respect their workers and NOT break the law 🤔
What a thought.
