San Diego Starbucks supervisor pushes to dissolve union after holiday walkout

A San Diego Starbucks shift supervisor is leading an effort to disband Starbucks Workers United at his store, claiming workers were excluded from bargaining decisions and that an open-ended Christmas strike left hours in limbo. He gathered signatures from about 64% of roughly 16–18 employees to trigger a vote to remove the union, with the petition now before the National Labor Relations Board. He says he supports unions in principle but objects to perceived missteps, and he has joined a broader coalition advocating union transparency.

Seattle superintendent posts union receipts in rare public rebuke ahead of school start

Seattle Public Schools Superintendent Ben Shuldiner published the district’s bargaining record, including SEA salary figures and a timeline, in a weekly newsletter, accusing the union of regressive bargaining as talks near the start of school; he notes the district’s minimum 8.8% three-year offer for SEA, explains IPD adjustments, and reveals the 1,060 SEA teachers’ total compensation around $142,584 before benefits. SEA members voted to authorize a strike, a mediator has been brought in, and questions about SEA leadership loom as 50,000 students prepare to return.

Boeing white-collar workers reject four-year pact, signaling potential strike

Boeing engineers and technical workers represented by SPEEA rejected the four-year contract offer and gave their negotiating team authority to call a strike when the deal expires in October. The terms included inflation-linked pay raises capped at 3%, a point of contention since inflation in the Seattle area has outpaced that cap. A work stoppage could further delay Boeing’s certification efforts for the 737 Max 10 and 777-9.
