Starbucks Strikes Expands to Three More Cities

HeadlineDec 24, 2024

In other labor news, the Starbucks strike has expanded to stores in Boston, Dallas, and Portland, Oregon. As of Monday afternoon, the Starbucks strike had closed 59 stores across the country. Naomi Martinez is a striking Starbucks worker in Burbank, California.

Naomi Martinez: “Starbucks workers are on strike today here in L.A. and the surrounding area, protesting against the outstanding unfair labor practice violations that the company has still failed to settle with our union. Additionally, our path forward that we forged with the company in February has been violated by the company for a few months now, and we will no longer accept poor bargaining and bad-faith bargaining.”
