Describe the advances made by labor unions during the great depression?
FDR would have remained neutral in disputes between labor and management but militant Union leaders, like John L. Lewis of the coal miners union, indicated they would support the attempts of the New Deal only in exchange for administration support for union goals. FDR signed the Wagner Act which made employers negotiate with unions that won collective bargaining elections and it set up a National Labor Relations Board to negotiate and examine claims by workers of unfair labor practices by employers. The United Steel Workers Union was formed in 1936 and gained administrative support and increased in numbers. Unions told workers in collective bargaining elections that FDR supported unions and wanted workers to join unions. Union membership increased during FDR's administration and strikes were allowed to take place without the government automatically taking sides with the employers and using troops to break up strikes. While the New Deal was not 100 percent successful in solving the economic problems of the nation, the Democratic Party did gain the support of organized labor in future elections.
