🔥 TWAS THE STRIKE BEFORE CHRISTMAS! 🔥✊ Starbucks baristas are going on five days of escalating ULP strikes in response to the company backtracking on our promised path forward, starting tomorrow in Los Angeles, Chicago, and Seattle... and soon, from coast-to-coast. 🧵

Union baristas at the Seattle Roastery are holding a 24 hour picket line - and have been at it for four days! Marshmallows, solidarity forever, and dedication to our fight for a fair contract keep them going late into the night 🥰

Unionized Starbucks workers are on strike in: -California -Colorado -Illinois -Massachusetts -New Jersey -New York -Ohio -Oregon -Pennsylvania -Missouri -Texas -Washington The strike could reach “hundreds of stores” by Tuesday, according to Starbucks Workers United,

Starbucks CEO Brian Niccol makes ~$50,000 an hour, has a private jet to commute to work from out-of-state, and was given a $113 million compensation package. Meanwhile, our pay isn't keeping up with inflation and we struggle to get the hours we need. Workers demand better!

Starbucks needs to come back to the table and offer an economic package that isn't insulting to the 10k members of our union that deserve a living wage, fair scheduling, & accessible benefits. Starbucks invested heavily in our rich CEO. We need them to invest in US, the workers!

Starbucks extensively broke labor law while trying to stop Buffalo-area workers from organizing in 2021, an NLRB judge has ruled. The ruling says Starbucks demonstrated a “general disregard for its employees’ fundamental statutory rights.”

Workers have SHUT DOWN the Seattle Roastery for 5 days straight after going out on an unfair labor practice strike on Friday 🪧😡✊ The Roastery will remain closed until 12/26 Our sympathies to all the people who were hoping to snag that $5.9k espresso machine for Christmas 🤪

#Cleveland is a #union town! Stop 1 on the #Ohio ⁦AFL-CIO ✊⁩ ⁦Starbucks Workers United⁩ #ChristmasEve Strike Tour.

These last few days have been some of the most amazing of my life. Out on strike, standing side by side in the blistering cold with my brothers and sisters as we fight for a better world. Amazon is coming to the table whether they like it or not. Our movement is unstoppable!

JUST IN: 5,000 SBWU baristas on ULP strike shut down 300+ Starbucks stores today 😏 Let’s hear it for union power✊

Thanks to the AFT Ohio Fed. of Teachers and United Steelworkers Union retirees who joined with AFGE to show #Solidarity with our Starbucks Workers United Siblings on strike in #Ohio

Amazon Teamsters stand in solidarity with Starbucks Workers United! Merry Strikemas everyone!

These unfair labor practice strikes are an initial show of strength, and we’re just getting started. We’re going to keep fighting until Starbucks gives us a serious economic offer. Starbucks should know: This is just the beginning.

Thank you to one and all who joined us on the picket line as we call seek to finish this with a contract we deserve! No contract! No coffee!

I love my Union so much. Would much rather have been at the bargaining table but whatever, your move Starbucks ✊

sara kelly, executive vice president of starbucks, thinks paying starbucks baristas a livable wage is, "not sustainable", and thinks they should accept a ~34 cent raise sara kelly made 2 million dollars last year alone lol

“A barista should not be a career.” Why not?

National conventions of the Postal Workers (APWU) and Teachers (AFT) passed resolutions in 2024 supporting the UAW's call for more unions to line up their contracts to expire next on May 1, 2028: labornotes.org/2024/12/big-un…
