Striking Amazon and Starbucks workers in California and elsewhere have long pushed for union contracts. The Trump administration is unlikely to be on their side.

Amazon delivery drivers and Starbucks baristas are on strike in a handful of U.S. cities as they seek to exert pressure on the two major companies to recognize them as unionized employees or to meet demands for an inaugural labor contract.

Thousands of workers from Amazon and Starbucks are currently striking this holiday season, as they seek to leverage the increased consumer traffic to demand better working conditions and higher wages.
