'We see unionizing as a commitment to making our store a staple in the community, and making Starbucks the great company we know it's capable of being.'

at locations across the country, which workers—known as"partners"—in Broomfield and Chicago noted in letters to president and CEO Kevin Johnson."As our fellow partners in Buffalo, Boston, Knoxville, Seattle, Mesa, and more have demonstrated, we believe there is no true partnership without the sharing of power, influence, accountability, and success," the Colorado workers wrote.

"We are not frightened, we are not intimidated, but we are emboldened, we are disappointed, and we are outraged," the workers explained."Our unionization is a means to ensure Starbucks can be the best place it can be for all partners, where genuine partnership is fostered, and sustainable, fulfilling careers can thrive.

Both groups of employees urged Johnson to sign a document attached to their letters detailing"fair election principles," which include recognizing that"the right to organize a union is a fundamental civil right essential to our democracy."
