E-Mail Action: Tell Starbucks 2009 is the Year to Honor Dr. King's Holiday!
Please join us once again this year to call on Starbucks to honor Martin Luther King Day by paying the same holiday premium that it pays on five other federal holidays to baristas who work on those days.
Last year after your grassroots actions, Starbucks was forced to admit publicly for the first time that it does not pay its time-and-a-half holiday premium on Dr. King's federal holiday. Yet, the company persisted in denying the holiday premium and continued to treat Dr. King's day as a second-class event.
Please take a moment to participate in an e-mail action telling Starbucks that we're not backing down and that it must honor Dr. King's Day on January 19th, 2009 with the same holiday premium it pays on five other federal holidays.
Take action now at: http://www.starbucksunion.org/node/2065
Thank you for all that you do for working families.
In Solidarity,
