Gov. Hoff urged Vermont delegates to enact a state level Wagner Act to intervene in labor management disputes. The piece notes federal mediation has waned under Johnson, cites Chrysler wage talks without government mediation, and argues careful expansion of state role is warranted.
The piece argues that increased state authority in labor management must be paired with just administration in public interest. It cites a Green Mountain Park dispute where Teamsters and rival unions clash and a mediating report by Louis Lavin is criticized as inadequately evidence based. It warns that a Little Wagner Act in Vermont risks poor administration without proper oversight.
