Employees at more than 150 Starbucks locations across the United States are planning to go on strike over the coffee giant's alleged 'hypocritical treatment of LGBTQIA+ workers.'
KTTH Seattle radio talk show host Jason Rantz says the parade banning LGBTQ cops from participating in their uniforms is driven by a far-left ideology on ‘Varney & Co.’with more than 150 stores and 3,500 workers planning to participate in the strikes this coming week over the company's "hypocritical treatment of LGBTQIA+ workers."
In a lengthy thread on Twitter, the union alleged that Starbucks uses "intimidation tactics" to "threaten" queer and transgender workers by cutting hours, removing credit card tipping and threatening workers with the loss of healthcare benefits. The organization alleged that many workers are not given a guaranteed 20 hours of work weekly, which is the minimum required for access to healthcare, and accused the coffee giant of tokenizing queer and transgender employees for positive PR.called the allegations "false" in a news release last week, re-pledging its commitment to the LGBTQ community and adding that the company was "deeply concerned" by the accusations.
The growing protests stemmed from a Twitter post on June 13 where the union announced the company's alleged ban on Pride decorations, writing, "BREAKING: In the middle of Pride Month, Starbucks BANS Pride decorations in stores across the United States."
