We represent nearly 1,500 dining workers on tech campuses in WA and OR at Google, Microsoft, and Meta. All these workers secured union recognition through a card check process just like workers are now asking from Lavish Roots. The countdown to our deadline of Dec 1 continues!

Tech dining workers and allies packed the room last night to announce a new deadline for LavishRoots, Meta's cafeteria operator in Bellevue, Redmond, and SoDo. By December 1st, we demand Lavish end their anti-union campaign and agree to a fair process for union recognition!
