Starbucks knows where our union stands. They know our demands. They need to finalize this contract and stop union busting before the holiday season begins... otherwise, we'll be ready. $SBUX

BREAKING: After months of stonewalling by Starbucks, unionized baristas just voted 92% to authorize a ULP strike unless $SBUX finalizes fair contracts & stops union busting.

Starbucks just announced major store closures and layoffs, making it clear things are only going Backwards at Starbucks under Brian Niccol’s leadership.
This company is NOT prioritizing baristas.
Our union is out in Chicago today to fight back.

Without a union, there's no protection.
