TODAY: Starbucks workers plan strikes at more than 100 US stores, including two in Arizona abc15
Starbucks workers at more than 100 U.S. stores, including two in Arizona, say they're going on strike Thursday in what would be the largest labor action since a campaign to unionize the company’s stores began late last year.
Stores in 25 states planned to take part in the labor action, according to Starbucks Workers United, the group organizing the effort. Some workers planned to picket all day while others planned shorter walkouts. The union said the goal is to shut the stores down during the walkouts.Willow Montana, a shift manager at a Starbucks store in Brighton, Massachusetts, planned to strike because Starbucks hasn’t begun bargaining with the store despite a successful union vote in April.
At least 257 Starbucks stores have voted to unionize since late last year, according to the National Labor Relations Board. Fifty-seven stores have held votes where workers opted not to unionize.
