Worker Power Coalition/Workers Rights Institute Hosts #LaborSpring Panel Featuring Workers from Starbucks and the Pittsburg Post Gazette

Posted in Labor Spring  |  Tagged , ,

Across the country, record numbers of workers are losing their fear, claiming their power and writing a new future for our labor movement. But too often, our laws fail to protect workers when they need it most – leaving them subject to rampant union busting, employer retaliation and other illegal tactics. Two courageous union activists describe what it’s like to fight for a voice at work, despite the limitations of our current labor law: Grace Zopelis, a Starbucks barista and Workers United member, and Natalie Duleba, a NewsGuild-CWA member who has been on strike from the Pittsburgh Post Gazette.

This Feb. 13, 2024 panel was sponsored by the Worker Power Coalition , in collaboration with the Workers Rights Institute  at Georgetown Law and Labor Spring 2024 , a project of the Kalmanovitz Initiative for Labor and the Working Poor.
