  • Starbucks' union campaign, which began with workers in the Buffalo region in 2021, has grown into a broad organizing effort documented in a film about the conflict between baristas and management.
  • Starbucks Workers United is asking consumers to join its contract fight, while pro-labor investors want Starbucks to separate its board chair and CEO roles.
