In 2022, Atlanta Starbucks workers made history by winning their first union election in the state of Georgia. Since then, Starbucks Workers United has organized 12 stores in Georgia, and Atlanta Starbucks workers have become a vibrant force in the growing Atlanta labor movement.
Now, after a over a year of dragging their feet at the bargaining table, the billion-dollar company has taken things to a new low and threatened to close Ansley Mall Starbucks, one of the strongest union stores in the South. This is no coincidence. Starbucks realized they can't beat workers fair and square, so now they're trying to demoralize workers, hoping they give up the fight. We can't let them do this.
It's time to show Starbucks corporate that Atlanta is a union town! Please use our easy letter writing tool at atldsa.org/ansley to email Starbucks management to let them know closing Ansley Mall is unacceptable. Our friendly baristas at Starbucks work hard, day in and day out to keep Atlanta caffeinated. All they're asking for is a good union contract.
Send your email NOW to tell Starbucks to STOP union busting, and let them know the community wants to keep Ansley Mall Starbucks OPEN!
