Taft-Hartley Act Disturbs Craft Based Bargaining Units
The article explains how Taft-Hartley Act regulation disrupts craft based bargaining.

It states the board should not disturb an industrial unit that has operated satisfactorily in collective bargaining.
Taft-Hartley Act Seen Destabilizing Established Bargaining Units

The view is that this weakens strong units and splits bargaining power, undermining prior settlements and showing the act creates disputes rather than resolving them.
