Say #NoContractNoCoffee with us: DON'T BUY STARBUCKS for the duration of our open-ended ULP strike! $SBUX
“Public sector workers make up half of organized labor. If they lose their unions, the power of labor as a whole will be slashed—and private sector unions, too, will be in the crosshairs.” — @labornotes (1/3 )

Abruzzo: “There’s no putting that genie back in the bottle. So, if the Agency does not fully effectuate its Congressional mandate in the future as we did during my tenure, I expect that workers with assistance from their advocates will take matters into their own hands in order to get well-deserved dignity and respect in the workplace, as well as a fair share of the significant value they add to their employer’s operations.”
Costco reported $7.4 billion in profits last year — a 135 percent increase since 2018. So how’s the company rewarding workers? By proposing less than 3 percent raises, kicking workers just $1 in the first year of a new contract. That’s not even enough to buy a Costco hot dog.
Whole Food workers in Philly are voting on forming a historic union today.
If they win they'll be the first union at the massive, Amazon owned supermarket chain.
10,000 workers at 10 Amazon facilities are organized with the Teamster. So far 8 facilities have announced strike authorizations and it looks like all ten might do it. Hopefully it’s the start of something massive.
BREAKING: Starbucks Workers United has authorized a strike.
The corporate giant hasn't moved on economic issues in negotiations, and now 98% of @SBWorkersUnited has voted to call a work stoppage “if necessary.”
The union has 10,000 workers at 500 stores.

Today, the Board ruled that, going forward, an employer will violate the National Labor Relations Act by requiring employees to attend captive-audience meetings in which the employer expresses its views on unionization under threat of discipline/discharge. https://t.co/odKn4Ah341

The NLRB has ruled that employers can't tell workers that forming a union will hurt their relationship with management.
This ruling overturns a precedent established in 1985 and deals another blow to the union-busting playbook.
