Supremes uphold law banning teacher strikes in Minnesota
Minnesota Supreme Court rules the 1951 no strike law for public school teachers constitutional, nullifying a settlement with about 1,800 striking Minneapolis teachers. The court voids a lump-sum payment and seven days of paid strike time, clarifying that public employees lack a common-law strike right and that deferred or paid post strike compensation violates the law. The Minneapolis Federation of Teachers struck April 9 over salary. the City of Minneapolis Education Association did not join. Attorney General Douglas Head filed the suit for the state.
