As of this morning, 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

The mayor of New York City, describing the freedom of the press as a “luxury” and intimating that my colleague is doing “something wrong” for asking a question—at a press conference, no less.
Adams called it part of "the beauty of America" that he could refuse to call on Chris — for more than three months now.
"Other countries, you don't have that luxury," he said of the freedom of the press, "other countries you're dragged away if you do something wrong."

Mayor Adams might have let our senior City Hall reporter @c-sommerfeldt.bsky.social in the room today — a week after banning him for asking a question — but he doubled down on and refused to call on Chris.
This even after two other reporters yielded their time to Chris.

No raises in at least 5.
