"Workers at the downtown Voodoo Doughnut location have given the company an ultimatum to voluntarily recognize their union, the Doughnut Workers United (DWU), or it will file a petition for a National Labor Relations board election. Voodoo Doughnut, a Portland doughnut chain that now operates shops in Austin, Denver, and Orlando, has long been a tourist destination in Old Town for its 'maple blazer blunts' and raspberry-jam-filled voodoo doll doughnuts. The union has fought for increased security presence and support for struggling employees during crises like the pandemic and wildfires." - Alex Frane
