After years of bargaining, 12,000+ unionized baristas still don't have a contract. It's time for Starbucks and its $100M CEO to do the right thing and get a deal done.
The Labor Community stands with @sbworkersunited.org and will do what it takes to help them win a fair contract.

MLK Labor is proud to update our endorsement in the Seattle mayoral race to support both Mayor Harrell and now, Katie Wilson.
