Starbucks workers plan to walk off the job on November 16, which is expected to be Red Cup Day. Students from campuses around the US plan to join Starbucks employees when they walk off the job later this week on what is expected to be Red Cup Day. Starbucks has not officially announced when Red Cup Day will be held this year, but last year, it was held on Thursday, November 17. College students actively campaigning to boot Starbucks from campuses plan to join workers November 16, a day the union is labeling "Red Cup Rebellion." Starbucks Workers United represents more than 300 unionized Starbucks stores and 9,000 workers.

New York CNN —Starbucks employees are getting more pay and new benefits, but some are only going to baristas that haven’t unionized. The question of which workers get what perks and benefits has been one part of a bitter fight between Starbucks and union organizers across the country. Workers who have been at Starbucks for 2-5 years will get a pay bump of at least 4%. “Starbucks has adhered to long-standing legal obligations, which required it to differentiate between unionized or organizing partners and partners in all other stores,” Starbucks spokesperson Rachel Wall said in a statement to CNN Monday. “Withholding benefits from unionized stores is against the law,” said Starbucks Workers United member Alex Yeager in a statement shared by union representatives Monday.
