Happy Solidarity Saturday to all of you sipping in!
This week workers filed to join the union in Long Island, NY, Palm Beach Gardens, FL, Santa Cruz, CA, and Seattle, WA. And workers won their union election in Columbus OH. Congratulations to all the partners becoming partners!
Next week there will be even more elections and new stores filing to join the union. We have to keep organizing because Starbucks backtracked on our path forward, failing to support the workers who are key to the company’s turnaround.
If you’re a Starbucks Partner, join us to win a better, safer workplace for you and your coworkers. And if you’re a student, especially if there’s a Starbucks on your campus, please join us on Jan. 31 at 7pm EST / 4pm PST for a special Student call.
Don’t forget to remind your friends and coworkers to sign the No Contract No Coffee Pledge to get updates on our campaign!
See you at the cafe,
Michelle Eisen
