Question 6 • (2026-2027) Riggin -- American Government 2nd Nine Weeks (1st Semester) BLDG

What was the main goal of the Taft-Hartley Act?

Answer
A
to place limitations on unions’ actions
B
to allow unions to go on strike at any time
C
to limit the power of companies in labor negotiations

Explanation

The Taft-Hartley Act of 1947 amended U.S. labor law to restrict some union practices and limit union power, including allowing states to pass right-to-work laws. It did not give unions unlimited freedom to strike; instead, it placed limits on certain strikes and union actions. So the main goal was to place limitations on unions’ actions.
