Six Los Angeles County Starbucks stores may soon reopen after the National Labor Relations Board said the coffee franchise closed about two dozen locations to halt union momentum.
As reported in the New York Times, a regional NLRB office determined that 23 U.S. stores were closed “because its employees engaged in union activities or to discourage employees from doing so.” At least seven of those stores had unionized, the Times added, though the company said none of the Los Angeles locations were unionized.

Even that eventually got struck down by the Supreme Court, after taking years and years of their sweet time to figure it out.

So in unionization disputes, employers can’t close a business location but employees can strike and close it?
To: Jane Long
Yeah but if they’ll go after woke company there’s no telling what else they’re capable of....
These people are unbelievably dangerous and absolutely evil.

You don't own your own labor....your home, your business, and even your children are all property of the totalitarian government.

I argue that there have been times when a union has a goal of closing a business with union activities. If not a goal, they are certainly indifferent to it. If a union manages to take out a business here and there, it would serve as a warning to other business to capitulate to their demands more readily. To the union, a closed business is just ‘collateral damage’ to the ultimate agenda.
