13.11.2025 17:32 β π 21 π 9 π¬ 2 π 0Starbucks workers launched a nationwide strike on Thursday, with more than 1,000 union baristas walking out across 40+ U.S. cities. The open-ended work stoppage, organized by Starbucks Workers United, began on the companyβs high-traffic βRed Cup Dayβ to maximize pressure. Roughly 65 stores were initially affected, though the union says disruptions will expand as more locations join. Workers accuse Starbucks of stalling contract talks, refusing to bargain in good faith, and ignoring unfair-labor practice rulings. Starbucks downplayed the impact, saying less than 1% of its U.S. stores are affected and that most locations remain open. The strike marks one of the largest coordinated actions since the union campaign began in 2021 and signals escalating frustration over wages, scheduling, and stalled negotiations.
Starbucks Workers United @SBWorkersUnited As of today, Starbucks workers across the country are officially ON STRIKE. And we're prepared for this to become the biggest and longest ULP strike in Starbucks history. Say #NoContractNoCoffee with us: DON'T BUY STARBUCKS for the duration of our open-ended ULP strike! $SBUX
