Due to the company's inability to bargain in good faith, @sbworkersunited.org have been forced to protest the company's unfair labor practice by going on STRIKE. They have asked for solidarity by flyering at non-union stores and by attending picket lines.
Large red letters along the top say Starbucks Workers United ULP STRIKE!" Below that in white letters, it reads "Show your support for striking workers this weekend!" above "96 Calef Hwy, Epping Crossing, Epping, NH" "16 Portsmouth Ave, Stratham, NH", the locations of the two Starbucks locations going on strike. Along the bottom from left to right, there is a QR code labeled "Contribute to the strike fund!", another QR code labeled "Sign a pledge of support!", and the SBWU logo and NH IWW logos labeled "Contact us for additional info!" Large red letters along the top say "Red for Bread Weekend" with smaller letters reading "Strike Edition!" to the side. Underneath it reads "Bring Starbucks back to the negotiating table!" in white text just above the Starbucks Workers United logo adjacent to the New Hampshire IWW logo. In the bottom left are the words "Scan to learn more!" with an arrow pointing right to two QR codes, the first labeled "Register an events with SBWU" and the second reading "Coordinate with others in New Hampshire".

Ice has imprisoned over 131 people trying to live a good life in NH. This fascistic abduction of people is unacceptable and we cannot stand for this to be allowed in NH. Rise up, get organized and make your collective voices loud enough to demand and end to this cruel and unusual punishment.

The democrats abandoning labor shows how disconnected they truly are from the working class. Neither of the two parties are for the people. It's time for us to change that.

Starbucks CEO Brian Niccol makes ~$50,000 an HOUR and commutes to work via private jet ☠️

All while baristas nationwide are struggling to pay their rent and get the hours they need to qualify for benefits.

We're on ULP strike. It's time for Starbucks to invest in the workers!
A group of workers smile and hold up signs on the picket line. Their signs have messages such as "STARBUCKS WORKERS DESERVE A FAIR CONTRACT TODAY!" and "Our union is strong!"

Today in #Austin, a group of "Luigis" rallied against corporate healthcare + in solidarity with Briana Boston with a banner reading "Deny, Defend, Depose: Greed Kills, passing out flyers + posing for photos with passersby. From flyer (see Alt Text): "When will we stop waiting and take what is ours?"
Flyer handed out by "Luigis" in Austin, TX: "On December 4th, UnitedHealthcare CEO Brian Thompson was gunned down. The bullet casings told the story: this was act of vengeance against UnitedHealthCare, who denies over 30% of health insurance claims—a company emblematic of a system that kills. Every year, over 50,000 Americans die from lack of insurance. 38% percent of us avoid necessary care because we’re scared of the cost. One in twelve is drowning in medical debt. Health insurance companies aren’t doctors. They don’t heal—they profit by restricting access to care. While we ration medications, delay appointments, and worry about bills, they rake in billions. We get sicker and they get richer. This violence isn’t on the evening news. It’s buried beneath their marketing, their endless paperwork, their fine print. But make no mistake: this is violence. And they’re laughing all the way to the bank. Blue Cross Blue Shield, Texas’s largest insurer, denies one in five claims while pocketing $18 billion in revenue. Whether Thompson’s death filled you with joy or horror, it ripped the mask off. The truth was laid bare: these companies are complicit in widespread suffering. Think about the last time you or someone you love worried about a medical bill. Put off care because of the cost. Cut pills in half to make them last. You’ve felt the violence they inflict. Now, the media and government scramble to spin the narrative, calling working-class mother Briana Boston a “terrorist” for uttering “Deny, Defend, Depose” when her claims were denied. We must remain clear headed: a small group gets rich off our illness. The solution is just as simple: abolish these corporations and nationalize health insurance. Single-payer healthcare works everywhere else in the developed world, where people live longer and healthier lives. Texans, by contrast, die three years yonger, victims of private healthcare. The only question left is this: When will we stop waiting and take what is ours?"

Y’all…we now have a union store INSIDE Starbucks Headquarters in Seattle!

Partners at the SoDo Reserve store voted UNION YES - just HOURS after we announced that 98% of SBWU baristas authorized to strike if necessary.

Our union is strong - and ready for whatever it takes 🔥
Six SBWU members raise their fists outside of the Starbucks HQ building, where the SoDo Reserve store is.
