On Friday, Federal Judge Sharon Johnson Coleman ruled that the U.S. Women's Soccer Team is not allowed to strike in order to put pressure on the federation to improve working conditions and increase wages. According to the union, they were seeking the option to strike, but had not definitively decided that they would. In a separate lawsuit, five soccer players had filed a complaint in March claiming that wage discrimination existed. The ruling on Friday does not directly impact the complaint filed by those five players.
