✊🔥Together, we’re making change and doing whatever it takes to get the workplaces we deserve.

Last month, allies & Starbucks workers participated in civil disobedience for the first time. Now, we’re inviting baristas to join us in a series of trainings that explore the legacy of civil disobedience to better understand how this powerful tactic has helped workers and social movements win! Keep a lookout for more information soon 👀

✊SIGN THE NO CONTRACT, NO COFFEE PLEDGE - bit.ly/signNCNC ✅

Fresh off the largest-ever strike in Starbucks’ history, SBWU baristas are united. We’re calling Starbucks out for failing to support the baristas who are central to the company’s turnaround. Starbucks backtracked on our path forward, and offered no raises or benefits increases specifically for union baristas in the first year of our contracts. They knew that an offer that low wouldn’t lead to ratified contracts. They failed to meet their own deadline for a foundational framework by the end of 2024. We’re ready to negotiate, but we can’t negotiate over nothing.

We’re calling on allies to tell the company that not presenting a viable economic offer is bad for business – so we’re asking everyone to sign and publicly share SBWU’s No Contract, No Coffee pledge!

🚨THIS IS HUGE.🚨 A giant step forward made possible by thousands and thousands of us JOINING TOGETHER and speaking out ✊✊✊

Workers United and Starbucks share a commitment to developing a productive relationship in the best interests of Starbucks partners. During mediation discussions last week over ongoing brand and IP litigation, a constructive path forward emerged on the broader issues of the future of organizing and collective bargaining at Starbucks.
 
To build on that path, Workers United and Starbucks have agreed to begin discussions on a foundational framework to achieve collective bargaining agreements for represented stores and partners, the resolution of litigation between the union and the company, including brand litigation, and a fair process for workers to organize. As a sign of good faith, Starbucks has agreed to provide workers represented by Workers United with credit card tipping and benefits announced by the company in May of 2022. 
 
While there is plenty of work ahead, coming together to develop this framework is a significant step forward and a clear demonstration of a shared commitment to working collaboratively and with mutual respect.

Philly has been showing up for workers by boycotting Ultimo Coffee! Sales have PLUMMETED since the boycott launched on Wednesday, making it clear that the Ultimos have no smarter business choice to make than settling a fair contract asap.

Thanks to all our allies and customers for their support; the boycott continues!

DAY 5 ULTIMO BOYCOTT 🗣️🗣️🗣️The workers of Ultimo are asking you to fight with your dollar and BOYCOTT ULTIMO COFFEE until they reach contract settlement. It’s time to show company that when they treat workers poorly Philly sees and Philly responds. Let’s show the Ultimos, they’ll get our business when their workers get a contract. They act like they don’t know !
