“On June 30, we won our union election. On July 5, Starbucks fired me,” said barista Austin Locke.
The union says Locke’s firing is part of a pattern of union-busting by Starbucks. It says Starbucks fired >50 union supporters in the past year.

The saga continues with the CEO of
@MOMsOrganicMrkt, who said this morning that he is "the most liberal, workers rights CEO" one will ever encounter.
Considering workers at a Mom's Baltimore location filed to unionize today, we'll see just how true this is real soon. ⏳
Holy shit.
The CEO of @MOMsOrganicMrkt just said in an email, and I quote:
"Corporations suck and so do unions, often for the same reasons and in the same way."
How would workers at Mom's feel knowing the CEO of their allegedly "progressive" company is anti-union?

OSHA confirmed for me that an Amazon worker died at the company's EWR9 fulfillment center in Carteret NJ last week during the Prime Day bonanza. OSHA is investigating. I've asked Amazon for comment. If you work at Amazon and have info on what happened DM me. I'm also on Signal.

people will really look me straight in the eyes and say they don't think unions are necessary anymore when, IN 2021, 1 out of every 5 coal miners in the U.S. have contracted BLACK LUNG DISEASE due to poor working conditions, the highest rate in 50+ years

ALT Industrial Workers of the World union logo featuring illustration of a cake that reads “Happy 116th!” Text wrapping around the top of the logo reads “Industrial Workers of the World, Established June 27, 1905, Chicago, Illinois.” A red banner at the bottom of the image reads “An injury to one is an injury to all.” Slightly modified from the original version created by Emily of the Richmond Branch of the IWW.

The union-busting lawyer is far more than the courtroom advocate who takes an adversarial position to workers in that venue. Inside the workplace and around it, they advise and wage a full spectrum assault to defeat workers' aspiration and impede solidarity. Nasty package.
