Coming up on the podcast:
* The primary elections continue forward with some interesting results for the restaurant industry including a McDonald’s franchisee that is very likely on his way to Congress. We discuss those results.
* And Starbucks along with Jeff Bezos of Amazon took on the White House last week in an escalating war of words. Is that smart politics for corporate players? We’ll take a look.
* And of course Starbucks Watch. We’ll discuss their new employee benefits of paying travel expenses for employees seeking abortion services as well as other gender- affirming procedures. Did the ongoing pressure of the unionization campaign affect that decision? We take a look.
* We’ll discuss those issues and wrap it up with the legislative scorecard.
