Discourse barista Caitlin Raasch voiced her support for the Anodyne Workers Union at their 414 Day Rally.
Earlier this year, Discourse Coffee workers unionized with strong majority support, and their employer voluntarily recognized their union.
FairWave’s current contract proposal includes NO RAISES for the majority of Anodyne employees for the entire three year contract.
Follow the link in our bio to tell the FairWave bosses that Anodyne workers deserve a living wage and a fair contract!
Anodyne workers are ready to do what it takes to win the fair contract that they deserve, it’s up to the boss if that’s at the bargaining table or in the streets.
“It’s our time, working people’s time — time to make work pay again.”
This May Day, Troy Brewer, lead cook at Fiserv Forum, spoke on why Wisconsin workers deserve a living wage and what it’ll take to get there.
“The world runs on service workers like me, whether or not we make a living wage should not be determined by who we are, what we do, or where we live.”
Anodyne workers are standing as strong as ever—and right alongside them are Anodyne customers and the Milwaukee community.
When workers speak up to demand respect, dignity, and a fair union contract, they don’t stand alone. Not in Milwaukee.
Yesterday, gubernatorial candidates @francescahongwi@keldaroys and @theothermandela stood with service industry workers like Troy and Sabrina — plus Living Wage Campaign organizers — to commemorate International Workers’ Day. Together, they laid out their plan to win a Living Wage for working Wisconsin by May 1, 2027.
We also took the Living Wage Campaign on the road to Green Bay, where we heard from State Rep. Amaad Rivera @air152 and more Wisconsin workers about what a Living Wage would mean for them and their community.

On 414 Day, Anodyne workers rallied alongside costumers and community members to tell FairWave it’s time to settle a fair contract.
The out-of-state private equity firm that owns Anodyne Coffee, has delayed the bargaining process and proposed wage cuts for Anodyne workers.
Milwaukee showed up to say enough is enough.
