Starbucks workers in Port Jefferson voted in favor of unionizing Wednesday night, joining over 400 store locations in a nationwide organizing effort.
Workers at the store — partners in Starbucks parlance — voted 10 to 1 in favor of joining Workers United New York New Jersey Regional Board, an affiliate of the Service Employees International Union. The Port Jefferson shop, at 201 Main St., is the eighth Long Island location to unionize since 2022.
