The nine to eight vote against unionizing makes the Lafayette store one of few to do so during a wave of union victories within the coffee giant.

Fired up by a labor movement that’s seen big union victories recently, dollar store workers are organizing in their own way to improve work conditions.

The successful, 11-to-1 vote happened weeks after a former shift supervisor that led the unionization effort was fired by higher management.

Billie Nyx says their firing from the Maple Street Starbucks was “a deliberate and strategic move” due to their role in unionizing efforts at the coffee shop.

Starbucks stores in New Orleans and Birmingham could be the next to unionize. Those leading the efforts sit down to discuss why and what they've learned so far.
