Sanders vs Schultz: Clash of the Titans in Senate Hearing.
TL;DR Summary
Former Starbucks CEO Howard Schultz denied that the company broke the law in its fight against unionization during a Senate hearing. Sen. Bernie Sanders grilled Schultz on the company's record of violating U.S. labor law, but Schultz held steadfast that these determinations would not stand up to the company's legal appeals. Schultz initially declined to testify at the hearing, but he relented after Sanders threatened to hold a vote to subpoena him. The push to unionize Starbucks is one of the most high-profile labor campaigns in decades.
