BREAKING: After I debunked claims that unionized workers can’t get tips, Howard Schultz now admits the *real* reason Starbucks won’t let unionized workers get tips is…
Starbucks doesn’t want to.
You’re wrong @HowardSchultz.
The union waived its right to bargain over credit card tipping, yet you’re still punishing union workers in Minnesota by blocking credit card tips – which drives down their wages by ~$4/hr.
That’s not working in good faith.
“Yes, I have billions of dollars - I earned it”
Maybe so. But for damn sure your 450,000 employees deserve good wages and stable hours, @HowardSchultz.
That’s why a lot of them want a union - which they have the right to.

Senators Smith, Rounds Reintroduce Bipartisan Bill to Spur Economic Development in Underserved Communities
WASHINGTON – U.S. Senators Tina Smith (D-MN) and Mike Rounds (R-SD) reintroduced bipartisan legislation to jumpstart economic development in economically distressed areas and address disparities in access to capital for underserved communities. The bill would strengthen and expand Community Development Financial Institutions (CDFI), which play a critical role in bringing capital and financial services to a wide range of underserved communities – from urban areas to small towns and rural communities to Tribal lands. “Unequal access to capital and financial services is a key driver of economic disparity in rural areas, communities of color, and Indigenous communities,” said Sen. Smith.
