Daily reminder @UnionStaffSEIU walked out due to stall tactics in bargaining. Lowkey it’s giving @Starbucks. @SEIU it’s time to bargain in good faith!!
Managers say we are one team, yet they show us there's actually two. That's why management has seperate breakrooms, has seperate meetings, and generally act as a united bloc against workers. They're already organized, why aren't we?
We look forward to Howard Schultz testifying in front of the US Senate. As the architect of Starbucks' unprecedented anti-union campaign, it is high time for him to be held accountable for his actions. Howard Schultz needs to learn that even billionaires aren't above the law ❗️
Today, I joined with my Democratic colleagues on the Senate Health, Education, Labor and Pensions Committee to invite Starbucks CEO @HowardSchultz to testify at a hearing on his company's labor practices.
Today SBWU-POCKET honors the words, values, and spirit of MLK, one of labor’s and civil rights greatest champions. Everyday workers continue the fight for dignity and respect, honoring King’s vision of a united future, for the workers of yesterday, today, and tomorrow, Together✊🏾
We stand with members of the @NYTimesGuild who are on strike today! These workers have assisted us at @SBWorkersUnited in calling attention to our campaign and to Starbucks' union-busting -- now it's our turn to stand with them! Don't cross the picket line!
Trains once staffed with five workers are now staffed by two. Conductors and engineers can be on call for 14 consecutive days and do not receive a single sick day. Once again, workers deemed essential are treated like anything but by uber-profitable corporations—and now Congress.
“If Starbucks wants me to leave the company, they will have to have me killed,” Ybarra said. “I will die before I let this movement die. We’re going to have a fucking union at Starbucks. They can't just close down all our stores until it's gone.” 🔥https://t.co/dvXM4YPTCl
NEW: The Red Cup Rebellion was @SBWorkersUnited’s biggest action yet against Starbucks’ rampant union-busting and failure to bargain.
Over 2000 workers at 111 stores nationwide went on strike. Stores shut, other unions joined in.
Workers took us inside this daylong uprising.
🚨STARBUCKS JUST ANNOUNCED THEY ARE CLOSING BROADWAY AND DENNY🚨
