STADIUM WORKERS JUST BEAT ICE

[Yo_Mama_Been_Loggin]

Scott Dworkin

America’s World Cup opener is today at SoFi Stadium in Los Angeles, and the 2,000 cooks, servers, bartenders, and dishwashers who work there are now among the highest-paid stadium workers in the country.

They didn’t get there by asking nicely.

The regime’s Homeland Security chief promised ICE agents at World Cup stadiums. FIFA—in partnership with the regime—demanded workers hand over home addresses and nationality data. Workers knew exactly where that information could end up.

Days before the opening match—when walking out would’ve been impossible to ignore—96% of them voted to strike. And they won big.

1. Wow!! From the article:

Their ratified contract delivers 40% raises, bringing most workers to more than $40 an hour, and something unprecedented in American labor history—the contractual right to walk off the job if ICE threatens any worker in that stadium.

BRAVO!!!!

14. Shoulda seen

that connection!

5. "Los Angeles should be a city of welcome--not fear."

Suites worker Yolanda Fierro put it best:

TY!

6. Does the agreement mean the stadium no longer is required to comply with the I-9 laws?

I just took a weekend job lasting just 5 hours at a sporting event this last weekend and had to supply a Passport to show I was legally allowed to work in the US.

8. Let the stadium go to detention then.

[MichMan]

10. Will they strike if the stadium supplies that information?

[KS Toronado]

11. I think the strike vote stopped that.

Doesn't mean ICE won't show up and cause problems.

7. Union yes!

12. Solidarity!! 🫡👏✊️

[Midnight Writer]

13. First time a worker is touched by ICE, all the workers should walk off the job.

That is solidarity.

[MichMan]

15. I get the sentiment, but the stadium likely doesn't have veto power over ICE

If they do strike over it, the workers will be the ones losing pay.
