For the Labor Day holiday, we're revisiting a critical bit of ongoing organizing happening in the United States.
One of the interesting side effects of the post-Covid economy has been a surge in the power and influence employees hold. Wages in service industry jobs have risen dramatically as employers struggle to find workers.

Michelle is a Starbucks Barista and organizing member of Starbucks Workers United.
