"Paul Pelosi owns a $17 million investment in H. J. Heinz’s company, which in turn owns ~75% of Del Monte Corp’s stock. Del Monte is the parent company of StarKist. StarKist Tuna owns one of the two packing plants on American Samoa. Combined both plants employ over 60% of the population paying less than $3.75 a hour in wages."

So yes, kinda, not directly - like Star Kist itself isn't listed in his portfolio, but their earnings affect his financial outcome in the long run.
