Starbucks is closing the first Colorado store to vote for union

Starbucks is closing a store in Colorado Springs that voted in May to unionize. It is one of eight in Colorado where workers are represented by a union. The company made the decision to close the location due to "health and safety concerns," according to the union. The union asked Starbucks to begin negotiations on a contract for workers on Oct. 24. Starbucks is closing the store on Oct. 23.
