The USMNT will be playing a World Cup game in SoFi Stadium next Friday. But this Friday, workers in SoFi Stadium authorized a strike ahead of the tournament 😳 UNITE HERE Local 11, a union representing 2,000 workers at SoFi Stadium, is demanding protection from ICE. They are also demanding premium wages during the World Cup from stadium food service operator Legends Global and FIFA. This strike doesn’t mean the workers will immediately walk off their jobs, but this is the green light for them to do so anytime. “They should not be there,” a worker named Yolanda Fierro said about ICE agents. “We want fair wages that we think we are due. But the other things we want is the security and safety of employees and guests. “If we cannot get those things, our folks are ready to walk. Let them run the stadium without us.” Kurt Petersen, co-president of UNITE HERE Local 11, also had strong words. "What good is the World Cup for Los Angeles when workers don't earn enough to pay the rent and must choose between showing up and being kidnapped by ICE?" he said. “If we're forced to strike, those $100,000 FIFA suites will have nothing but bottled water and Doritos."

Palestine have reached the final round of World Cup qualifiers for the first time in their history. A remarkable feat for any country, but in the midst of the violence back home in Gaza, this is unprecedented. The Lions of Canaan played all 28 of their games on the road.
