Won't be buying Starbucks: Mamdani as he backs baristas' strike
NYC Mayor-elect Zohran Mamdani has backed a nationwide strike by over 1,000 Starbucks baristas over unfair labour practices. "Starbucks workers...are...fighting for a fair contract," Mamdani said on X. "While workers are on strike, I won't be buying any Starbucks, and I'm asking you to join us. Together, we can send a powerful message...No contract, no coffee," he added.
