🚨Have you felt sick after handling Starbucks’ silica-based blending powder? If you're a barista, reach out to us. If you're a Starbucks customer, we urge you to STOP BUYING STARBUCKS until the company finalizes union contracts with the protections and improvements we need.

ICYMI: Starbucks is discontinuing the blending powder right after our union escalated on the issue. Interesting how that works!

Unlike other businesses in Minneapolis, Starbucks is allowing ICE agents into stores against the concerns of baristas and our community. That's why our union is taking action. Across Minnesota, baristas are demanding that Starbucks update their guidance around ICE immediately.

This Starbucks regular found out his store was on ULP strike today. When he found out he couldn't get his daily coffee, this is what he had to say...

A Starbucks District Manager in Columbus, OH ripped down pride flags in a cafe. This customer wasn’t having it.

Solidarity with the Teamsters drivers who aren’t crossing the picket line today!🫡 NO DELIVERIES FOR UNION-BUSTERS 😤 #RedCupRebellion

Starbucks' latest response to the new silica-based blending powder: They dodged the issue entirely.

All this while Starbucks pays big money to convince us we don't need unions btw

Today, Starbucks showed up two hours late to the bargaining table in Boston - despite workers seeing lawyers outside the hotel where negotiations were taking place at. The company seems to be doing just about everything they can to avoid timely good-faith bargaining.

BREAKING: Allies are being arrested in NYC after staging peaceful sit-in to support union baristas' fight for a contract. It is shameful that Starbucks let it get to this point. We need CEO Brian Niccol to bargain a fair economic offer with our union NOW.

This week Howard Schultz returned to Italy to talk about Starbucks and our union campaign before he steps down as CEO. Schultz claims that Starbucks was inspired by the Italian coffeehouse scene, yet this is how ACTUAL coffeehouse workers are responding to his interview —

⚠️AN ANNOUNCEMENT FROM STARBUCKS WORKERS UNITED ⚠️ 'Tis the season for our next unfair labor practice strike. November 16th. #RedCupRebellion 🎄✊

BREAKING: No more free water at Starbucks, no more free restroom use, and no more hanging out in the lobby unless you're buying something. Workers and customers are getting nickeled and dimed by company that pays its celebrity CEO $57,000 AN HOUR. 🧵

More than 300 Starbucks stores and 5000 BARISTAS are on an unfair labor practice strike today! This is the largest ULP strike EVER in Starbucks’ history. ❌📝NO CONTRACT NO COFFEE❌☕️

Oklahoma City Pride has banned Starbucks from their parade. You can't be for LGBTQ+ rights and union-bust workers asking for fair protections, fair pay, and accessible healthcare. It's as simple as that.

Instagram banned our account. Are you also scared of us Instagram?

UPDATE: When the LA wildfires began earlier this month, Starbucks baristas reported working in unsafe conditions, with one store's video going viral on social media. In response, these workers organized and fought back - and later won catastrophe pay. Hear their story below 👇

We're hitting the road! Union partners from all over the country are going on a nationwide bus tour to let Starbucks know it's time for a contract! #nocontractnocoffee

"As of now, our union, Starbucks Workers United, has the facility under a full blockade." Starbucks worker Silvia lays out the ULP strike escalation at Starbucks' largest regional distribution center #NoContractNoCoffee
