CALL TO ACTION:

Christina Rosevear, a pregnant Starbucks Barista and IWW member needs our help. Although she is over 8 months pregnant, Christina is being asked to come back to work Monday, September 3rd, or face termination. They will not extend her pregnancy leave, and she is due in just weeks.

Come out to the San Francisco Starbucks Regional Headquarters to demonstrate your support for Christina and to urge Starbucks to extend her pregnancy leave and health insurance coverage.

WHEN: THURSDAY, AUGUST 30, 10AM - 12PM

WHERE: STARBUCKS REGIONAL HQ, 455 North Point (Cost Plus Market
Building), between Taylor and Mason streets, in San Francisco, CA, in the
Embarcadero area.

ALSO, Call Jen Marinas, Partner Resources Associate of Northern CA, at her office: 415-241-0256 x 2228, or email her at [e-mail], and urge her to pressure higher-ups to extend Christina Rosevear’s pregnancy leave (to actually cover her delivery date, and recovery time) and to leave her health insurance coverage intact. AND, contact Starbucks Chairman Howard Schultz at [e-mail] and Starbucks at 800-235-2883 with the same demands.

We'll see you in Thursday!
