Workers at a popular Elmwood Avenue restaurant are looking to unionize. Watch their conference announcing this here: trib.al/F3iQgKA

Workers at Elmwood Taco & Subs in Buffalo recently voted to unionize. ETS workers say they've faced retaliation from ownership + have filed ULP charges w/ NLRB. So this'll shock some: the spouse of ETS’s co-owner is an Erie County Legislator + Democrat, Michael Kooshoian 🧵

Michael Kooshoian is married to ETS co-owner Jackie Kooshoian. ETS workers told me a huge reason they’re unionizing is because of the owners' management style 👇 Since unionizing, ETS workers say they’ve faced retaliation + have gone on ULP strikes. truthout.org/articles/union…

Michael Kooshoian was endorsed by the WNY Area Labor Federation ⬇️ WNY ALF doesn’t take union-busting lightly. WNY Dems take great care to appear very pro-labor. Will be interesting to see how this all plays out.

My remarks to the Cornell Liberated Zone after my suspension Friday. Cornell’s Interim Expressive Activity Policy forbids the unauthorized use of amplified sound, so I delivered them on the people’s mic. youtu.be/au8gdj6N5kk?si…

I swung by Elmwood Taco and Subs in Buffalo NY yesterday to speak with supporters of ETSUnion. ETS workers voted decisively for a union last November. There’s been an ongoing boycott of ETS because of employer retaliation and union-busting 🧵

ETSUnion Arjae is an organizer with Workers United and a former Starbucks worker and member Starbucks Workers United. The first unionized Starbucks on Elmwood Avenue is right next door to ETS. Arjae explained why they’re supporting ETSUnion.
