BREAKING: STARBUCKS UNION SUPPORTERS ARRESTED WHILE PEACEFULLY PROTESTING [[link removed]]
Starbucks must be getting scared: The coffee giant just called the police on Starbucks Union supporters engaging in a peaceful protest in Brooklyn today for a fair contract and to protest unfair labor practices -- in this case closing a unionized store without bargaining that decision with the union.
Starbucks needs to turn its business around. That's not going to happen until they listen to baristas like us who show up day in and day out to make the Starbucks experience what it is. But, instead, they called the cops on us.
We won't stop. Just last month, over 5,000 union baristas walked off the job, shutting down stores in 43 states because of unfair labor practices. They're wrong if Starbucks thinks it can keep dragging its feet on a fair contract with us.
We need your help. Sign the No Contract, No Coffee pledge today to stand in solidarity with Starbucks workers putting our bodies on the line. [[link removed]]
CEO Brian Niccol and the rest of their overpaid executive crew badly misjudged how far we're willing to go to get a fair contract -- One that guarantees we can afford the basics like food, rent, gas, and healthcare. One that guarantees our hours week to week. One that staffs our stores in line with demand.
Starbucks needs to listen to us. Starbucks paid the CEO over $96 million in JUST FOUR MONTHS and gave him a private jet to commute to work in Seattle. Then the company turned around and offered baristas no raises or benefits increases in the first year of our union contracts. Are you kidding me?
Today in Brooklyn, Starbucks workers made ourselves clear: enough is enough. [[link removed]]
They're listening now. Add your name to tell Niccol and all his shareholders: negotiate in good faith. Until then... No Contract, No Coffee! [[link removed]]
