Workers at the Starbucks located on north Highway 101 in Lincoln City filed a petition last week with the National Labor Relations Board (NLRB) to unionize with Starbucks Workers United.

This announcement, issued through a press release from Starbucks Workers United, came the day after more than 100 Starbucks stores went on strike for better working conditions through a union ahead of the company’s annual shareholder meeting.
