SoFi Stadium workers threaten to go on strike for USA opener

Published by Webster

3 min readJun 6, 2026 09:52 PM IST Even as hosts United States prepare for their FIFA World Cup 2026 campaign-opener against Paraguay at SoFi Stadium, workers at the venue have voted to authorize a strike. The 2,000-strong staff of bartenders, servers, cooks and dishwashers in the Inglewood-based stadium thus has the option to walk off the job on June 13, after contract talks stalled with the stadium’s food service provider. Associated Press quoted union member Yolanda Fierro as saying that workers were concerned about pay and security on the job amid ramped-up immigration enforcement under USA president Donald Trump’s administration. “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?” said Kurt Petersen, co-president of UNITE HERE Local 11, as per the report. “If we’re forced to strike, those USD 100,000 FIFA suites will have nothing but bottled water and Doritos.” Los Angeles county sheriff Robert Luna had earlier said the United States department of …

Bobby Deol ‘I started drinking and got addicted’ Speaking to Aap Ki Adalat host Rajat Sharma, Bobby admitted that it was his wife Tanya Deol who stood by his side during this tough time. He said, “When you give up, you get into self-pity. It’s human nature. You feel your world is over, no one likes you, and then you get addicted to a few things which help sedate you.

In an essay titled ‘Something Big Is Happening’, Hyperwrite CEO Matt Schumer lays out a blunt, deeply personal take on where artificial intelligence is headed, and why people outside the tech bubble need to start paying attention now. Schumer begins by explaining why he felt compelled to write the piece in the first place. After six years of building an AI startup and investing in the space, he says he’s constantly asked by friends and family to explain what’s really going on. “I’ve spent six years building an AI startup and investing in the space. I live in this world. And I’m writing this for the people in my life who don’t… my family, my friends, the people I care about who keep asking me ‘so what’s the deal with AI?’ and getting an answer that doesn’t do justice to what’s actually happening,” he wrote, adding that the answer he usually gives them is a polite “cocktail-party version”. This time, he decided to skip the simplified version and speak plainly about what he believes is …

In a statement, the Manipur Petroleum Dealers Fraternity (MPDF) said they were deeply disappointed that the government has taken no concrete action regarding their security, even as a memorandum about it was submitted to Governor Ajay Kumar Bhalla on December 10.

Hundreds of members of such outfits have been arrested in connection with extortion demands so far.
