Are Companies Using the Pandemic as an Excuse to Stop Unions? - Eater
"On March 20, employees at the downtown Portland, Oregon, location of the nationally expanding chain Voodoo Doughnut delivered a letter to management announcing that they had formed a union with the International Workers of the World.
