“Starbucks has engaged in the most significant union-busting campaign in modern history,” said Sen. Bernie Sanders.
“NLRB judges have found that Starbucks broke the law 130 times across six states since workers began organizing in fall 2021,” the HELP report states. “The NLRB is also currently taking Starbucks to trial in 70 additional cases.”
The report goes on to challenge Starbucks’ claim that it is bargaining in good faith with workers who have voted to join Workers United. None of the nearly 300 locations that have made the choice to unionize since December 2021 have secured a first contract. “It has been over 450 days since the first Starbucks stores voted to form a union. Starbucks has not taken any meaningful steps to make progress toward actually negotiating a contract in that time period,” the report observes. “On November 30, 2022, the NLRB found that Starbucks has unlawfully refused to recognize and bargain with the union at its Reserve Roastery Store in Seattle following an election in May 2022. Starbucks has appealed the NLRB’s decision to the Ninth Circuit.
The committee’s analysis — which also takes on the company’s claim that it is a “model employer” and that the unionization push does not reflect the desires of the majority of its workforce — concludes that “Starbucks has engaged in the most significant union-busting campaign in modern history.” “Just because Starbucks is a $113 billion company and Howard Schultz is a billionaire with a net worth of $3.7 billion does not mean that they are above the law,” the report says. “They must be held accountable for creating a culture that allows widespread violations of federal labor law in an effort to stop workers from exercising their constitutional right to organize.”is widely read among people with lower incomes and among young people who are mired in debt.
