Unionized Starbucks workers have started their fourth day on strike.

Workers walked off the job in over 40 cities last week.

And this year’s strike has gotten attention from high-profile politicians. Both Seattle mayor-elect Katie Wilson and New York's mayor-elect Zohran Mamdani called on customers to boycott the coffee chain.

Last week, Senator Patty Murray (D-WA) urged Starbucks to cut a deal with the union.

So what’s holding up negotiations?

GUEST: Casey Martin, KUOW reporter covering the strike
