John,
Tomorrow, Starbucks customers across the country are raising their fists and Pumpkin Spice Lattes to condemn the Starbucks CEO and demand the company respect workers. Starbucks' efforts to appear progressive are downright SHAMEFUL when they're one of the most prolific union-busters in U.S. history.
Show you're with us by signing our petition to Starbucks CEO Laxman Narasimhan. Tell him to stop the union-busting, meet workers at the bargaining table, and respect us!
SIGN NOW >>
All year, thousands of Starbucks workers like me have voted, marched, petitioned, and protested to demand Starbucks respect our right to a union. Meanwhile, Starbucks, which posted $3.3 billion in profits last year, has responded with a brutal, bullying anti-union campaign of threats, intimidation, firings, store closings, and refusing to meet us at the bargaining table.
I experienced Starbucks' union-busting firsthand when I started organizing my store. My manager said that my health benefits could be taken away. It was a blatant threat to scare me – and just one of the tactics that Starbucks has used to crack down on worker organizing.
This #SolidaritySeason, we need allies like you to help amplify our demands. Sign our petition and tell Starbucks to respect worker organizing.
Across the country and across industries, workers are demanding respect and an end to union-busting. It's happening with UAW members, who recently voted to authorize a strike. It's happening in California, where fast-food workers are demanding livable wages and a seat at the table. Whether we work in coffee shops, airports, writers' rooms, fast-food kitchens, or auto factories, our demands are the same: Respect Us. Protect Us. Pay Us. Help Starbucks workers like me by demanding Starbucks end union-busting NOW >>
In solidarity,
