Senate Labor Reform Proposals Move Toward Settlement
The measure seeks an 80 day injunction to curb strikes during national emergencies and directs conciliators to pursue settlements. It would outlaw closed shop contracts and allow union shop only by worker vote, prohibit certain strikes and boycotts, and empower the NLRB to seek injunctions. It also targets welfare funds, holds unions liable for unfair practices, loosens foremen bargaining, caps dues, and protects employers speech without coercion.
