"Fifty Starbucks workers in New York are trying to form a union, which would be the first in the US for the coffee chain if successful.
Last week, the group of workers in the Buffalo area publicly announced their union organizing drive and the formation of their organizing committee, Starbucks Workers United, in a letter to the Starbucks CEO, Kevin Johnson.
None of the more than 8,000 Starbucks locations in the US are unionized."

That figure is based on a closely-watched model by the University of Washington, which projects that the U.S. will see 98,000 more deaths between now and December 1, bringing the total U.S. death toll to a staggering 730,000. Experts say that the ominous death toll can be avoided by increasing vaccinations and encouraging other public health measures." #TheDamageReport #JohnIadarola #TheYoungTurks
