Dear Delegates,
This is a critical time to ramp up pressure on Starbucks to respect workers’ rights and stop union-busting, and we need as many allies as possible to take action tomorrow, March 22.
What: Solidarity “Starbucks be kind to your workers stop union busting” actions at a Starbucks near you, uplifting the demands of Starbucks workers across the country, many of whom have been fighting to bargain with the company for over a year. We’ll build on the worker-led flagship action in Seattle, Washington to demand that the company stop union busting and come to the table to bargain with workers. The “be kind” messaging is building off a recent Starbucks ad campaign they spent millions on. We know using this language will get their attention
When: Wednesday, March 22, 2023
Where: Brookhurst & Stanford, Garden Grove
12711 Brookhurst St
Garden Grove, CA. 92840
