A vote by employees at the Sodo Reserve store has led to Starbucks Workers United, a union representing baristas nationwide. This marks the 33rd Starbucks store in Washington to join the union after employees voted 21-to-14. The union has gained significant support, with Seattle headquarters becoming their hub of activity. Notably, the negotiations between Starbucks and the union have been on hold indefinitely, pending further updates.
