Starbucks sued Starbucks Workers United and affiliates, alleging trademark infringement. In a trademark-infringement lawsuit filed Wednesday, Starbucks accused Starbucks Workers United, and an affiliate, Iowa City Starbucks Workers United, of damaging the brand's reputation. The Starbucks union is an SEIU affliate. Starbucks Workers United countersued the chain in federal court in Pennsylvania, asking to be allowed to continue to use the circular green Starbucks Workers United logo. "Starbucks Workers United did not make a "statement" let alone multiple "statements" advocating for violence, nor did the union take a "position" supporting violence."

Starbucks is suing for trademark infringement, demanding that Workers United stop using the name Starbucks Workers United for the branch that is organizing the coffee company's workers. But posts and retweets from local Starbucks Workers United branches supporting Palestinians and condemning Israel were still visible on X Wednesday. Seattle-based Starbucks filed its lawsuit in U.S. District Court for the Southern District of Iowa, noting that Iowa City Starbucks Workers United was among those posting pro-Palestinian messages. In a letter sent to Workers United on Oct. 13, Starbucks demanded that the union stop using its name and similar logo. In its response, Workers United said Starbucks Workers United’s page on X clearly identifies it as a union.
