Strike Averted Before World Cup
from Bakersfield News Today | 2 Min News | The Daily News Now!
Two thousand SoFi Stadium workers were on the brink of striking right before the World Cup kicked off — but a last-minute tentative agreement averted chaos. The union, UNITE HERE Local 11, had voted to authorize a strike over demands for better pay, job security, and protection from outsourcing — concerns amplified by rising immigration enforcement. With eight World Cup games scheduled at the stadium, including the U.S. opener against Paraguay, the stakes were sky-high. Now, with the strike called off, workers will serve fans without disruption — a win for both staff and spectators as the soccer spotlight shines on Inglewood.
