Portland Thorns Players Walk the Line with Striking Nabisco Workers

Dozens of striking Local 364 Nabisco workers joined together with members of the Portland Thorns soccer team today outside the Portland Nabisco bakery.

“As you can see, we don’t have a thought of giving up at all,” said BCTGM Local 364 President Jesus Martinez to the crowd and soccer players. “We will win just like you win.”

The players are members of the National Women’s Soccer League Players Association (NWSLPA) and came to offer support and solidarity to the striking union members who have been picketing for over a month and are showing no signs of giving up. Bella Bixby, Simone Charley, Marissa Everett, Emily Menges, Madison Pogarch, Taylor Porter, Yazmeen Ryan, Abby Smith, Morgan Weaver, and Christen Westphal all lent their name, time, and voices to these efforts.
