'This is a major victory,' said Rep. RoKhanna. 'It's time for Starbucks to pay fair wages and treat every worker with dignity and respect.'
"Unions are the counterweight to corporate power," Khanna wrote."It's time for Starbucks to pay fair wages and treat every worker with dignity and respect."
The union wins in California signal that organizing momentum is still growing at a remarkable pace amid aggressive pushback from management: More than 60 Starbucks locations nationwide have voted to unionize since the first union wins in December, and hundreds more have filed representation petitions with the National Labor Relations Board.
In an attempt to undercut the organizing wave, Starbucks in recent weeks has fired workers closely involved in unionization efforts, at locations across the country, and threatened to deny new benefits and wage increases to employees who have voted or are in the process of voting to unionize.a massive complaint accusing Starbucks of unlawful intimidation and other offenses in Buffalo, New York.
On Tuesday, the NLRB asked a federal court in Tennessee to order Starbucks to reinstate seven Memphis workers who were fired as they tried to unionize. The board also said the corporation must"cease its unlawful conduct immediately so that all Starbucks workers can fully and freely exercise their labor rights."
