Starbucks CEO Brian Niccol is the embodiment of oligarchy & corporate greed.

Even with the largest CEO-to-worker pay gap in the S&P 500, he’d rather threaten our livelihoods and make stores worse to “cut costs.”

If Starbucks doesn’t finalize union contracts soon, we’re ready to STRIKE.✊

The CPS funding crisis has a clear fix: Dr. King’s Balanced Budget.
We don't need a HIGH-interest loan.
Loan Today = Layoffs Tomorrow.

Mayor Brandon Johnson selected Dr. Macquline King, who is tackling CPS’s budget deficit without resorting to further harmful layoffs or an ill-advised loan.

The fact that the federal minimum wage is still $7.25 is a sad indictment on a country spiraling into oligarchy.

They called it a “budget bill.”

We call it the largest health care cut in U.S. history – over $1 TRILLION ripped away from working families to fund billionaire tax breaks – which will force over 20 million Americans to pay an average of 75 percent more for their healthcare coverage.

What creates change? It isn't praying for corporate to catch a hint.

Union baristas have won big changes in their stores - and throughout the entire company - after taking action.
