NAM seeks nationwide outlaw of industrywide strikes
The National Association of Manufacturers urged Congress to outlaw industrywide strikes and all forms of compulsory unionism. NAM claims 85 percent of U.S. manufacturing capacity and over 9,000 members. NAM chairman George W. Armstrong Jr. said bargaining should occur at the company level and NLRB should not certify a common bargaining agent for multiple employers. The CIO and other unions oppose this stance as House hearings on Taft-Hartley act revisions proceed. AFL president George Meany testified on the matter.
