Anti Strike Bill Explained by Government Official
A Washington report outlines how the proposed anti strike bill would operate if enacted. It would be a temporary emergency measure allowing the president to seize and direct strikes affecting national welfare. Employers and workers could face firing, loss of seniority, or army draft orders, with court martial or federal injunction options for noncompliance. The measure also covers penalties for union leaders and possible government operation of seized firms with net profits paid to the Treasury.
