Discuss the Taft-Hartley Act of 1947
What will be an ideal response?
The passage of the Wagner Act led to a growth in unionization and an increase in workers' power. Given that they had had almost no power before, any power workers obtained was bound to look like a dramatic increase. Thus, the public's perception of union power may have been greater than the actual power of unions. At any rate, this perception led to the passage of the Taft-Hartley Act, which was designed to curtail the powers that unions appeared to have acquired under the Wagner Act.
Section 8(b) of the Taft-Hartley Act, titled "Union Unfair Labor Practices," bars unions from engaging in certain specified activities. The act also: a) amended Section 7 of the Wagner Act to include the right of employees to refrain from engaging in collective activity; b) made collective bargaining agreements enforceable in federal district courts; and c) provided a civil damages remedy for parties injured by certain prohibited union activities.
