Studios Forcing Overtime on IATSE Before Strike - 10,000 John Deere Workers Strike - Starbucks Union [View all]

Starbucks Closes Two Stores Wanting to Unionize
With Starbucks workers unionizing at five Starbucks locations in Buffalo, New York, Starbucks has decided to suddenly close two of them, citing the need to remodel as the justification.
However, union activists question if that was their true motive.
“We were supposed to get a refurbishment earlier this year, but it’s happening now,” barista Jaz Brisack told Vice. “As soon as we petitioned for a union election, they said ‘[the remodel] is definitely happening.’ Their goal is to separate and disconnect us.”
