Tate’s Bake Shop Workers in Long Island Allegedly Threatened With Deportation Due to Unionization Efforts | Eater NY

"At the Southampton shop, employees say Tate’s Bake Shop—which largely employs undocumented workers—is allegedly threatening to deport staff who try to unionize, with management reportedly telling workers that “if their documents are not in order and they attempted to join the labor union they would get deported,” according to Cosmo Lubrano of the union; workers say pandemic-era shortcomings such as unclear paid time off to self-quarantine and limited access to safety equipment further fueled interest in unionizing, workers have until April 21 to vote, and Mondelez (which acquired Tate’s in 2018 for $500 million) calls the harassment allegations “untrue.”" - Erika Adams
